Mississippi, smarter than Indiana?

Among the bills signed into law by Mississippi Gov. Haley Barbour on Friday is House Bill 1568, which bans the use of cameras to catch motorists running red lights.

The story notes that at least eight other states have also banned the cameras. Indiana is one of six states debating whether to use them. The cameras' effect on traffic safety is still a matter of debate -- their efficiency in raising money is not.
