Hi All,Newsday has a very interesting and useful database of red-light cameras in Nassau County. You might have seen these cameras sitting atop the signal at busy intersections in Nassau County.
Or not. You might not have known what they are...but they are around Nassau. Click here for a list of them - both a map and a long list - of where these cameras are located.
Interestingly enough, click on this link that says that red-light cameras reduce crashes.
Alternatively, click on this link that says that red-light cameras are not about safety.
You might also want to click on this link from AOL Autos that discusses whether or not red-light cameras reduce crashes.
Finally, readers who have teenagers who are about to learn to drive might consider taking a peak at this video we have in our collection at the library. The name of the video is 'Rules of the Road' and it is in DVD format and you can find it in the library in the 629.28 section. FYI, the video is mixed in with the rest of our non-fiction books!
Okay, one last plug for the library! Did you know that the library offers defensive driving classes for Senior Citizens and for adults under the age of 50? Well, we do - and if you click on this linkand scroll to the last page of the newsletter, you'll find our most current classes for AARP members and for folks under 50 years old. Attendees can save money on their insurance for up to 3 years.
Hope this helps - safe driving.
Regards,
Stu
