During this Carmageddon, people expect business as usual
Last year's 405 Freeway closure caused fears of awful traffic jams — which didn't materialize. Many Westside and San Fernando Valley merchants and customers say they won't be fooled again.
Forget about panic. This weekend's big closure along the 405 Freeway in western Los Angeles is prompting little more than a ho-hum and a few worries from area businesses and workers. They say they can't forget being terrorized before the spectacular traffic jams expected last year.

Humble credits red-light cameras with reducing accidents
Humble credits red-light cameras with reducing accidents
Houston Chronicle Copyright 2012 Houston Chronicle. All rights reserved. This material may not be published, broadcast, rewritten or redistributed.
Published 3:24 p.m., Tuesday, September 25, 2012
The city of Humble is trumpeting the success of its red-light camera program. Since 2007, Humble has installed cameras at major intersections coming into the city from U.S. 59 as a way of keeping motorists from running red lights and reducing the number of traffic accidents. The system, which was leased in 2007 from Scottsdale, Ariz.-based American Traffic Solutions, supplies data to the Humble Police Department in the form of hundreds of electronic files per day that are dumped into a file that is accessed by law enforcement officers who review each red-light incident. The removal also sparked debate between supporters who cited safety as the underlying issue, and opponents, who claimed the cameras merely provided a steady stream of revenue for city coffers. Overall, the rate of serious accidents along U.S. 59 and intersections such as Townsend Road and FM 1960 are down and the number of traffic citations has increased. Because most who live in and around Humble know where the traffic cameras are, many of those who receive citations have a Houston address.
