With cameras watching what goes on, rule breakers will finally get what they deserve. People have to be held responsible for what they do, especially when it has an immense impact on the entire community.

Aggressive driving causes car crashes. Knowing there is a camera will slow most people down at a stoplight.

Photo enforcement is a concrete way to restore lawfullness on the roadways, with numerous cities and programs with data that support the use of such enforcement. While the ACLU still has it backwards on red light cameras, these actually GUARANTEE EQUALITY by only ticketing actual law breakers!

I live off Cooley and am at the intersection of Cooley and 97 often. I have seen so many people run that light. It's a very unsafe intersection and having speeding cameras there would be a wonderful way to curb that behavior.

No one is watching if you don't break the law, so turn off your iphone and put down your jumbo soy latte.

This is a huge ploy to over ticket the citizens and will NOT because it didn't change the driving habits but what it did do, it lead to over 100,000 Oregon citizens who had their license suspended because of citation debt. I'm talking to all you who fall in a low income category!

People are becoming more lawless. Get a ticket, Throw in glove box. Ignore the law again. No real enforcement. Privacy? If you aren't doing anything wrong, why object to cameras anywhere?

Maybe a few, but only for otherwise law-abiding citizens. I suspect most red-light runners don't care and tickets won't stop them from speeding.

Even a friendly dog with excellent recall can cause real problems for the owner walking their reactive dog on leash; a dog running free is highly exciting to other dogs; it's not fair for the owner of the reactive dog to have to deal with that overstimulation in a "leash only" area.

I recently I commented that it is not fair. But your comment makes me feel incorrect. I have had a reactive dog before and I feel that your comment is valid.

If it is a law and you break it regardless of what it refers to that is breaking the law- which by definition is criminal. If you put your pet in a situation that is unsafe that is your responsibility and ergo you are a bad pet owner. Pets are like our kids, it's our job to keep them safe.

yes because they are putting their dog as well as people with leashed pets at risk. Not all dogs like other dogs and not all people are comfortable with strange dogs running up to them.

There are laws and rules for a reason. No one should think that laws and rules don't apply to them. If they want their dog off leash then go out in the woods where no one else is or to a fenced dog park.

BECAUSE most dog owners that do this have zero respect for others or property.. NEVER pick up poop and feel entitled

There are leash laws for good reason. On a side note Bend Parks and Recreation need to put up signs at dog parks reminding owners that they are liable for damages their dogs cause to other dogs or humans under Oregon law. Bend PD treat dog parks like they are outside of their jurisdiction.

A bad dog owner is someone who is not able to care of the animal or mistreats the animal. The person is just not considerate of others and will break the law for whatever reason they may have. *if you have an aggressive dog it is the OWNERS responsibility to keep the dog under control anywhere

There are many factors, if your dog has great recall and obeys to stay in a heal being off leash is fine as the dog is still in verbal control. Dogs that do not listen should not be off leash.

Maybe there pet is trusted and not reactive. Why does a none relative happy pet need to be restricted?
