These up-eds usually complain that photo radar would be fine if the radar worked properly. This one doesn’t even do that. It just complains that speed limits aren’t fair and now drivers have to change their behavior. jfc
It is true that drivers can avoid such tickets by sticking to the posted speed limits, but it is also true that drivers are hardly ever expected to strictly observe those limits.

It’s like the generally accepted contract between drivers and police – just drive at a reasonable speed and you’ll be fine – has been broken.
Or, you know, just be aware of the current speed limit and respect it?
As pointed out by another here, the problem is structural, and individual action cannot be the answer here.
Sure, I’m all for getting rid of individual cars for good, or fixing the issues mentioned in the comment you linked. In the meantime, the author of the article can apply my method to fix his problem.
