Calgary Police have made a record amount of money from speed on green cameras for the second year in a row.
Cops brought in $40.8-million in total fine revenue in 2012, including traffic tickets, photo radar and red light cameras.
The money helps cover the bill for police equipment like computers, vehicles, guns and body armour.
The Calgary Sun reports, speed on green tickets climbed last year by more than 23,000 as more motorists sped past the cameras.
Police are hoping the rising numbers will serve as a caution for Calgary drivers to change their habits.
