I go thru the Clark lane, 63, and I-70 intersection mess everyday and it
just amazes me that I have to sit at a green light and wait for all these
people to stop going.

I go through an intersection with a red light camera on the way to work
every morning.  It's one of 3 the county owns, and it's well advertised.

The result?  

People rarely run the light in that direction, but they go through it
faster (to avoid being "caught" in red?), and it has no effect on people
going the other way across the intersection (photo only catches people
eastbound on the main road)....   Doesn't seem worth it to me, though I'm
all for anything that makes people stop at red lights.
