Hello: I appreciate the efforts of the Kent Police to crackdown on folks not wearing their seat belt; this is good.<\/p>\n

It would be nice, when the seat-belt focus is done, if they could then focus on red-light runners. They could pick an intersection and spend several hours ticketing red-light runners, then move to another intersection, etc.<\/p>\n
