I'm not sure where you are getting that info from. Chicago is at the top of the list of number of red light and speed cameras. 300 intersection cameras at least. You can read more about this program here: Chicago Red Light Camera Program
They've had the usual corruption and kickback issues with it, as is typical of Chicago, but the program remains.
Dang, I thought I remembered reading an article a few years ago about how the city was sued over the red light cams and were forced to remove them.
