Speeding cameras Options

[last337]

I am not sure if anyone has brought this up before but they have been implementing speeding/red light cameras down here for some time now and unfortunately I have been nabbed several times (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif)

Every time I get one I am always tempted to go fight it but seeing as it doesnt hit your record or you insurance it is usually just easier to log on to the website and pay the darn thing.

I have always heard of people getting out of them by sending letters saying that there is no violation of contract between you and the ticketing company (in my case photonotice.com) and siting that the company itself is not a legal entity and the ticket was never issued correctly by a ticketing officer. I also always want to question the most recent calibration records for said camera.

Anyways, has anyone ever had luck with this? I am not against paying the price of breaking the law and I dont normally speed excessively but I hate speed traps in little towns designed just to do that, trap you. Also, if I am going to pay something I would like to speak with an officer and at least ask to see his radar gun and check his calibration sticker.

Spent part of the afternoon dealing with this rigged system and yes, it is bad to run lights, but these things are causing people to slam on their brakes, then get rear ended (IMG:style_emoticons/default/mad.gif) causing more accidents, not less (IMG:style_emoticons/default/mad.gif) As already pointed out, in some places the timing has been changed, shorting the Yellow lights, and un-sinking lights, all to generate $$$$$ ..

I got one for turning Right, on Red, $158+$4 handling, and yes, they have an affidavit, if you weren't driving, and you have to give the info of who ever was driving, and if you do that, it starts off at $200+ and you get the points..
Clearly a no win situation, and nothing more than a Driving Tax, according to a buddy who is a city attorney. As Paul said, FL is going to a bland tag, to make it easier for the cameras, more BS, and the local ones don't take you picture, just the car & tag.



Yea, Big Brother is here to stay, unless we get a nice Class Action suite to stop it..
