Hmm. How about a more disturbing one? That guy survived, at least, that's what I heard.

I'm skeptical of the story. The video is very dramatic and looks 100 percent real, but it was my understanding that red-light cameras took only still photos, not super-clear high resolution video.

Oh, wait, turns out that some systems use video analysis instead of induction loops, so I guess it's possible.

Wow, scary stuff.

Hehe, apparently the person whose link that was decided he didn't like people sucking down his bandwidth. Someone I emailed the link to reports that it is now something else quite entirely different, and even more disturbing...and NSFA (Not Safe For Anyone)

I can corroborate that: I've learned a valuable lesson about clicking on a linked word, like "disturbing," *while at work*. AHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!
