Traffic cameras are a terrible idea. There are now traffic cameras in some places in the United States that aren't just fixed in place to aim at the traffic, they are now remote control and can be aimed at other places such as houses and buildings near the road.
They are basicly setting up an infrastructure that could be easily converted to use for monitoring the public, quelching political demonstrations, identifying houses where people meet, etc. I'm not saying that's the current intent but once the infrastructure is there it will be very tempting(and very easy) for it to be put into use.
