"A speed camera that has recently spent more time on its side or in a pond than it has upright and functioning has clearly fallen well short of addressing the dangerous speeding on Parkside Drive," Gholizadeh said.

It has issued over 68,000 speeding tickets and generated over $7 million in fines to date, according to Safe Parkside.

It has spent most of its time inactive and still generated $7 million in revenue?

That's around $100 per person which is approximately the fine for going 17 km/h over the posted speed (17 × $3 per km/h over × 2 for being in a community saftey zone). The posted speed limit is 40 km/h. The average person is therefore going 57 km/h.
