Fun fact: you can estimate a conditional logit by running a fixed effects Poisson. They yield the same estimates and standard errors - they maximize the same likelihood. Poisson regression forever!

It is scandalous that speed cameras are currently illegal in Massachusetts. Thankfully, the 2026 budget tries to change this

I’m proud that my speed camera pilot program is now being implemented.
This will protect Minnesotans by reducing reckless driving and speeding.
These cameras will capture the license plates of speeding drivers and the city will mail a ticket to their home. So, drive carefully!
