In NY state, the governing body is implenting a plan, while the infrastructure is already in place on some highways, to catch speeders using the ez pass system. If you do not know, ez pass is an elecrtronic device you keep in your car to pay tolls without stopping. This device has a microchip with your unique id number that leads to an account for paying the toll. Soon they will catch speeders by placing scanners on the highway that will do the math of how fast you go by how quickly you hit each gate. And the ticket will be issued and sent to the owner of the vehicle. Apparently, they say the positive side is that they can track terrorists, kidnappers and criminals also.

I see our freedoms in america becoming less and less. Soon, something as american as a young man wanting to feel the speed of his new mustang by letting it out on an open road, will be a thing of the past as any speeder any time of the day will be punished.

Does anybody see where this is going to eventually lead?

Yes, I have a problem with this. Not just because it's getting too 1984, but because it discourages people from using the EZ Pass, which means there will have to be more toll booths manned by people, which makes it more expensive to run.

It's just an excuse for the government to get more revenue from roads they no longer run.

No different from their excuse of safety concerns regarding "checkpoints"...which they check for drunk drivers, unlicenced drivers, warrants, seatbelt and vehicle inspections...all in the name of safety.
Papers please.
