As long as I'm not doing something wrong, I got nothing to worry about.

The streets of London, England have had surveillance camera coverage for many, many years. Londoners are used to it and most couldn't care less about them. The cameras actually help settle who is at fault in traffic collisions.

They are not honest with what they do nor their intentions. The government wants all our money and they want to control all that we do. The government will end up controlling all those cameras and that is what bothers me. Our personal freedoms are being taken one by one.

OnStar can call Detroit police all they want. The fact is, the cops are out gunned and extremely understaffed. They have a lot more important things to worry about than a speeding ticket or seatbelt infractions.
