Breaking Brett Jensen kicks off the show by discussing a bizarre local story involving two men riding horses through Uptown Charlotte.

Jensen presents the main point of confusion: why the horses were in Uptown Charlotte at all. He reflects on how strange it is that not just one, but two individuals agreed this was a good idea.

Breaking Brett Jensen discusses the Charlotte City Council committee meetings held earlier in the day. A major topic raised during the meetings was traffic safety, particularly the potential return of traffic cameras at city intersections. Jensen detailed the early 2000s, when Charlotte last installed traffic cameras. However, that program was suspended in 2006. He said historical data from Charlotte’s seven-year program showed notable safety improvements, and cited national data from 2025 that supports those findings.

Jensen also addresses the Charlotte Area Transit System and its security strategy. A key point of criticism was the repeated use of the term “perception” by city leaders and law enforcement when discussing safety concerns.
