New York City is expanding its network of automated red light cameras, with plans to install up to 600 across the city, as complaints from drivers grow over perceived leniency toward cyclists. Critics argue that while motorists face strict enforcement for traffic violations, cyclists often escape penalties despite similar infractions. The move comes amid ongoing debates over traffic safety and fairness in enforcement between different road users. Authorities defend the cameras as a tool to improve overall road safety, though tensions remain high among frustrated drivers.
