Not exactly off-topic [these one below is a far *cousin*]:
Russia ... well:
Six US cities tamper with traffic cameras for profit
March 2008
http://www.leftlanenews.com/six-us-cities-tamper-with-traffic-cameras-for-profit.html
[S]ix U.S. cities have been found guilty of shortening the amber cycles
below what is allowed by law on intersections equipped with cameras meant
to catch red-light runners. The local governments in question have ignored
the safety benefit of increasing the yellow light time and decided to
install red-light cameras, shorten the yellow light duration, and collect
the profits instead.
Etc. (The world is tiny, seemingly.)
And from a comment to the article above:
Quis custodiet ipsos custodes? [Who watches the watchmen?]
Good question, and not even a modern one by surplus.
