Race-neutral traffic cameras used by Chicago, designed by a diverse group of people, and planned by a black administration …. are still racist:

Maybe black drivers get stopped more often because they commit more traffic violations, don’t have current vehicle registrations, don’t wear seatbelts etc. Every article about traffic stops must contain information that black motorists are victims. What a joke.

The bend on I-90 between roughly Elmhurst Road and Arlington Heights Road is super dangerous too, the super speeders use that bend to speed over 100mph. It’s really dangerous
