Considering how busy the 400 series highways are in Ontario - it makes sense to have cameras as it is quicker.

Not only is it quicker... An Officer was talking at the start of the week there was an accident on the 401, and people where using the emergency vehicle lane, and it is prohibited to do so. If the highways in Atlantic Canada where the same as the 400 Series in Ontario we would need cameras like they have... You also can't say it wasn't you because there cameras are set to catch the plate, and face of the driver... It would be a waste in NB, and I've driven in NS, and PEI as well it's the same there to... Not enough drivers on the highways to warrant spending that much money on cameras.
