    Another life lost due to idiot driving

    What a shame. Another person's life lost due to a driver not paying attention. So tired of the "everyone" will look out for me mentality of drivers here in AZ these days. Ran a red light and killed the person in a cross walk. What kind of penality will this driver get? Probably a shame on you don't do it again, in the meantime Mr. Frasetto's family lives are changed forever.

    Although gone, and sorry to be off the story, but doesn't this just confirm that having a Red Light Camera here wouldn't have made a difference to this man's life? Human are prone to making costly errors and technologies sometimes can't help us.
