Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg unveiled a road safety plan Thursday promising to 'promote speed safety cameras' across the country, but a councilman says the cameras in the city today are little more than an 'indirect tax on cars.'Speed cameras in New York City went from 20 at the start of then-Mayor Bill de Blasio's first term in 2014 to about 1,400 across 750 school zones, Republican Councilman Joe Borelli said on Tucker Carlson Tonight on Tuesday.Borelli argued that the Big Apple's streets are 'deadlier than ever.' Meanwhile, the cameras have generated about $215 million a year - or $25,000 an hour - for the city in the form of fines.
