For example, I've seen people slam on the breaks when they realized there was a camera there as to "play it safe" (when they could have made it through) making it very unpredictable and dangerous for the person behind them.

The opposite is also true.. People often punch the gas and speed as to make sure they don't et caught in the middle of it changing.

There've actually been studies that deal with statistics along those lines, and suggest that they're worse than not having them at all for exactly those sorts of reasons.

It's really a nebulous kind of field of study, though, so it's hard to say objectively that's the case, or the reverse.

Not to mention the instances where the localities that use the cameras shorten the length of time the light is yellow (making things less safe) so as to nab more people.
