Actually, probably none of them will. Because it is impossible to confront the accuser in a photo violation, most of the jurisdictions have intentionally made a red light photo violation a no-points civil code matter, eliminating the burden of proof otherwise necessary to win otherwise. Red light cameras do nothing to improve safety. Their sole purpose is to generate revenue. The best protest is to run every read light in a photo jursdiction on your bike. Put a little dent in the revenue generation.
