uieones or Dustness ethics to ns situation. Situation 6 Red-light camera systems are used by government agencies internationally to catch drivers passing through intersections with a red light showing on the traffic signal. The systerns continuously monitor the traffic signal, and the camera is triggered by any vehicle entering the intersection following a specified time after the signal has turned red. Cameras record e date, time of day, time elapsed since the beginning of the red signal, vehicle speed, and license plate Th e Insurance Institute for Highway Safety has concluded that cameras reduce red light violations by 40% to 50% and reduce injury crashes by 25% to 30%. However, critics of such programs argue that the decrease in side-impact collisions has been accompanied by an increase in rear-end collisions as drivers slam on their brakes to avoid running a red light. Some agencies that have implemented the systems have benefited from revenues generated by fines that exceed their costs (i.e., the costs of installing the system and the rges of the private contractors who operate the programs). Some criticize the fines and revenue-sharing arrangement with the technology providers, arguing that cameras are placed to optimize revenues rather than to promote the most safety. Consequently, some red-light camera technology providers have negotiated flat-fee, rather than revenue-based, contracts Discussion Questions 1. Do you see any ethical issues involved in the use of red-light camera systems? Why or why not? 2. Should cities allow outsourcing of the operation of the systems? Why or why not? 3. Apply the normative theories of business ethies to the use of red-light camera systems
