Things that could be different

This may come off more as a rant than anything, but you would most likely agree the following things could be done differently...

1)red light cameras - someone on forums the other day got a red light camera ticket in the mail, he was .5 seconds too late. Fair ? Or just another money grab ? After all the reason he went through was because it wasn't safe to stop... Studies have shown that a better way to improve an intersection is to elongate the yellow phase.

2)people on cell phones while driving - and erratically at that. Lack of common sense or inability to think of the consequences ? I'm no saint on this one, I have done it, but I pride myself in actually being a good driver.
3)band-aid laws of Ontario - anyone doing over 50 is stunt driving ? Give me a break. About half the reported incidents I read were law officials getting busted. Including a fire chief and a cop on the highway. Mr.cyclist-crusher just wasn't about to unsatisfy the people with a lack of street racing laws. What about all the unregistered firearms in Toronto ?
