Nevertheless, the Daily Herald reports the board's transportation committee will start talking about a policy for the cameras in about two weeks.

One idea would allow cameras only at intersections where at least five crashes occur a year.

Some board members insist the motivation is not to collect revenues.

If the policy is adopted, each location will be reviewed and approved by the county.
