How quick from red light cameras and noise alerts to automated tickets sent by mail, big no from me

Backseat policing in my opinion would only inconvenience good drivers and not punish bad drivers

How would cameras that automatically send a ticket to people who run red lights inconvenience good drivers, or fail to punish bad ones?

It would needlessly clog up an already struggling violation appeals process. Would overwhelmingly confuse drivers who are used to right on red which would need to be posted, fewer right on red intersections would only congest intersections more and lead to longer wait times. Won’t deter dangerous drivers who’ll keep violating anyways.

on the noise side if relying on digital location of high-noise offenders to dispatch a unit a similar system has already failed in the shotspotter gunshot detector
