There's one at a major intersection near my house, and thus on my usual route home. Haven't had the misfortune of getting "caught" by it yet, and hopefully won't need to worry about that ever. It's actually a source of comedy for me, 'cause I laugh at others that get caught as they technically run the red light as they turn left. It definitely has changed my driving habits at the intersection, and I think it's mostly done a good thing.
I've heard secondhand stories of how other cities tore down erected camera stations because they were _too_ effective at catching violations, and thus people started following traffic laws to the letter, and thus revenue was not enough to pay for the camera cost.
