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. |

All right, Im not to say running a red light is a good thing. I drive 35k a year in the company car. I see it all. The cameras are just money makers!! It was in the news the 3 cameras in Lynwood Wa. netted the city 60 million a year. They also found the timing of the lights on those 3 intersections were 2 seconds faster that the state laws minimum. Rear end colision went up something like 50 percent.
In your 2 pics one shows you at a stop with brake lights on and the second show you taking a free right? You werent drifting the corner? Or was that you??? Not sure i cant see your face? maybe it was the Sig. We will never know. "Yea, Big Brother is here to stay, unless we get a nice Class Action suite to stop it.. " or paint balls (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lol-2.gif) good luck. |
