WCCB gets CMS honcho Pete Gorman all excited about the prospect of red light camera cash flowing to the school system. Gorman:

“Is that a dedicated source where that money would go? Does it go into the general fund? Ya know, I’ve heard some city officials say well we think this is good we think it should be used for after school programs.”

A-ha, if you want after school programs, you gotta go with the red light ticket scam, shorter yellow-lights, more dangerous intersections, impossibility of any appeal, etc.

But it is for the children.
