There aren't enough law enforcement officers to police the dysfunction & endangerment of people running lights, & blocking the intersection

Anything that will help slow down the insane amount of speeding on the Parkway is a good thing.

Only if they are mobile so you can use them in problem area's until problem is solved not as permanent like above a stop light that is just Policing for Profit.

Speed is clearly a problem on the parkway and much of 97. I can't see how enforcing laws that protect public safety is too much government control.

Yes, put them up. The visitors and residents from the South and the North all think that they are a big fish in a small pond and drive like they do back where they came from. They drive like it is a video game and endanger everyone on the roads.

Sloppy driving, speeding and lack of traffic police to deture these actions to prevent accidents and possible injuries to those doing the right thing. It costs everyone in higher insurance rates in areas with more accidents.

We lived in Tucson, AZ. where they had these camera's & shortly taken out of service because the person driving the vehicle couldn't be without a doubt 100% identified. The plate # could be seen, but not the driver/owner. Cost Pima County residents millions of dollars. Waste of $. Fix the pot holes.

Absolutely NOT! That is like a privacy infringement, government over reach at best. Spying on citizens, imagine what that could start! So I say NO, NO and by the way(blank) NO!

It's not more "control" to enforce laws that already exist to protect public safety.

Well if people would drive at a safe speed, they wouldn't have to treat everyone like idiots.

Too many bike riders currently riding on a sidewalk, then they change to a street, then a bike path. BTW...how fast will these ebikes go. Also, many riders aren't cautious....currently. Who's going to enforce an age minimum? THIS is already a problem! Hope accidents don't happen.

I voted this way because I still have 50.00 on the blue bird bike app that I can't get back at all. I had NO idea that when the program ended you wouldn't get your money back

Many of my students display addictive behaviors regarding their phones, and it has proven detrimental to their learning and social development. Any positive of cell phone use is vastly outweighed by negative consequences.

Long overdue. Students need to focus on being educated in school, not watching videos, playing games, & chatting with each other. Educators and others do not need the distraction that cell cause. If there are emergencies that students need to know about there are other ways for them to find out.

Kids are way too addicted to their phones and it is affecting their learning. Phones could be kept in a basket in the classroom in case of emergency, but definitely NOT with the kid.

My teaching friends say it's been a battle to keep kids off their phones in class and wastes a bunch of class time time addressing this. How will this be enforced any differently though?

There are times that they shouldn't have them but check them at the door of class rooms to cut back on the use. Emergencies do happen and cells are useful
