ATS Leads by "Example".
Recently Tutton did a piece in the Huffington Post. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/james-tuton/how-safety-camera-technol_b_876917.html You just know it was too good to pass up. So with without further Ado, lets see how ATS leads by "example:
This is the post I left in 3 parts:
Why don't we look at how ATS REALLY WORKS!
Denying Democracy in Houston, TX. http://www.chron.com/disp/story.mpl/metropolitan/7318259.html?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+houstonchronicle%2Ftopheadlines+%28chron.com+-+Top+Stories%29
Quote: "A spokesman for ATS promised after the election that the company would not seek to nullify the outcome of the referendum, but that's exactly what their countersuit is seeking."
Also let me state that after RLC WERE SHUT OFF, ACCIDENTS WENT DOWN! http://blog.chron.com/newswatch/accidents-fall-at-houston-red-light-camera-intersections/ What’s the matter Tutton, afraid to tell the TRUTH! HPD HAD TO DATA SHOP TO MAKE THAT CLAIM you are using. HPD was BUSTED manipulating a earlier RLC Study in 2008. http://www.thenewspaper.com/news/26/2675.asp
Using Front Groups to fake public support in Washington State. http://www.washingtonstatewire.com/home/4779-scottsdale_red_light_camera_firm_stands_behind_astroturf_campaign_in_mukilteo.htm
ATS VP BUSTED doing FAKE post pretending to be a local in WA state. http://heraldnet.com/article/20110517/BLOG48/705179793/-1/news01
ATS suspected of being behind phone call campaign trying to stop St. Pete Beach from saying no to RLC. (The town said NO to ATS RLC). http://www.tampabay.com/news/localgovernment/st-pete-beach-decides-against-red-light-cameras/1172151
Quote: “I received a call from a lady who said someone called her telling her why we should approve it (red light cameras)," Garnett told her colleagues.
Garnett said the resident told her that the red light camera caller had "patched her through" to Garnett's phone.
"I don't like this kind of marketing," said McFarlin, who received one of those calls himself.
McFarlin said he didn't know if the calls were from ATS or made on its behalf.”
ATS involvement in Front Group "National Coalition for Safer Roads". http://www.thenewspaper.com/news/34/3431.asp
Quote: “ATS has replaced PARS with the National Coalition for Safer Roads, through which Storm King has conducted media interviews and created an advertising campaign to promote camera use in Missouri without identifying the group as a creation funded by the camera industry.”
ATS suspected involvement in MO Dot study claiming less "crashes"! http://againstallclods.wordpress.com/?p=244&preview=true
Quote: “Why would they not use data from the city of Washington¬? Hmmm, could it be because the data wasn’t helpful to the conclusion they desired? Could it be because American Traffic Solutions, one of the “vendors” who had input into the study, but who’s name was not disclosed by MoDOT,”
ATS town busted manipulating crash statistics by shortening the distance 1/2. Arnold, MO: http://camerafraud.wordpress.com/2011/02/10/ats-astro-turf-support-american-traffic-solutions-desperate-for-friends/
ATS and Baytown TX BUSTED manipulating VOLATION RATES by increasing the Rejection Rate! http://www.thenewspaper.com/news/31/3173.asp
Quote: "Statistics show that, in response, city officials and American Traffic Solutions have deliberately issued fewer citations. The program rejected 29 percent of violations in July 2008, but documents show the rate of rejections climbed to 54 percent in December."
Most of what ATS "cites" are technical fouls. GO PULL THE STATS!
Most "violations" are right turns on red, stopping over the stop line, and split second mistakes.
Use of different "definitions" of what "counts" as a violation in towns: http://www.banthecams.org/201105131210/Tale-of-Two-ATS-Towns-HOW-SCAMERA-OPERATIONS-USE-DIFFERENT-DEFINITIONS-of-a-Stop-line.html
LET THE PEOPLE VOTE! ATS and their Cronies DO NOT WANT based on attempts in Washington State Towns! http://www.thenewspaper.com/news/34/3489.asp
