A cop standing at every intersection would feel a lot more uncomfortable to me but each to their own
Is that how you think they used to do it before red light cameras?
How do you imagine the cops do it so it's the same as with the cameras? Or would you be fine with worse enforcement, as long as you do away with cameras?
There can be a middle ground between almost no enforcement and taking a photo every time someone might be breaking the law, but also the camera might be miscalibrated or malfunctioning somehow.
How else would you enforce people to follow the law if cameras aren't an option?
The fact it wasn't enforced in the past doesn't mean it shouldn't be enforced today. People were allowed to drive drunk in the past as well.
Last I checked, there weren't drunk driving cameras, so I'm not sure how that's relevant. If anything, that makes my point for me. Human cops enforce anti-drunk driving laws.
