Scotty Kilmer do not sign the paper that you got. Go online and find one. In fine print, it says you agree to pay no matter what. These photo enforcement cameras are a huge scam.

It became pretty obvious that the government and these private companies were using the new technology purely as a money-making device, not as an attempt to improve traffic safety as had been claimed.

It should not be a crime to use automation to enforce good laws. Your argument that since no one was hurt she did not break the law. Most of the time when people break traffic laws no one is hurt, so are you saying that justifies no traffic laws? People can drive seventy through a school zone because usually kids are not killed? People should drive on sidewalks because usually no one is standing at that exact spot? People should run traffic lights because usually the intersection is clear? I am not a troll. I am saying be reasonable. Traffic laws are saving her and your life as well as everyone's.

[@deadlyta]

@@quicknumbercrunch8691 actually yes People shouldnt be punished in a free country unless they harm others However I also suport stiffer punishments for when someone is hurt My state , Ga, 4 years is not uncommon for killing someone. It should be life I feel that traffic guidelines should exist to determine faught , for both insurance and crimnail culpability but I dont feel that a cop pulling someone over and charging them for speeding and then sending them on there way does anything to prevent people from speeding or give any incentive for police to prevent people from speeding . The state makes money here. Look I dont think people should go 140 mph in a 35 but I also dont think a one sizes fits all legal system is fair or that the goverment knows better then the individual what the individual can safely handle . I think as long as a person doesnt push there vehicle or themselves past there limit then they should be fine and they shouldnt be punished and that those who do and wreck hurt others or property should be punished harder. I do apologize for the troll comment I do see where you are coming from my views are a bit unique but paying a state breaking the law because she broke the law is a case of two wrongs dont make a right and I figured it was sarcasm . I dont expect you to agree with me but i just think the system at current encourages curuption and doesnt really do anything to prevent accidents , I've had enough friends die in car accidents or come close to want to prevent them but I don't think the system does that.

How can anyone trust a collection company to charge a fair interest rate?

rustymozzy Not in Texas, I’ve had a ticket they have been trying to get me to pay for over 7 years now. It was from a red light camera. They send me a notice about every month. Nothing has happened at all. Hasn’t hit my credit, or any points on my license. I’ve been pulled over many times sense then & have no warrants. There not getting my $$$ lol

[@Ggamingnashville615]

rustymozzy not in Tennessee as well. A law enforcement officer has to witness the infraction to issue a ticket. They are scams here. We don’t pay them. Source. I’m a former LEO

[@rustymozzy]

So ignoring it has not made the issue go away. You're still getting fined, probably while they are waiting for the legislation to come through as to how they enforce it. You think they want to pay for a service they can't recover costs on? You don't suppose they're putting retroactive legislation through now? Arlington is still chasing the fines, and other areas are deciding on how to deal with the issued fines before Bill 1631 was signed by Gov Abbott. Why not keep ignoring things in life that you don't like, and avoid responsibilities, until one day you're on the other end of the stick. You broke a law, why not be accountable? Has it meant you're more or less likely to do it again? Isn't the fine small in comparison to the potential carnage you may have caused? Is this advice for all drivers to disregard laws and responsibilities if there's a tiny loophole to weasel out? I dunno, it seems a bit illustrative of why the rest of the world laughs at Americans and their disregard for being accountable. The fines aren't for revenue raising, the money is used to contribute to safer intersections, and helping the trauma wards in hospitals. I dunno what sepo's think, but personally I think that's not a bad thing. Using fines from those irresponsible drivers to do such things is a great way to utilise a resource. Perhaps think of the fine as a donation to a hospital, it's much cheaper than paying for a wheel chair bound victim, or for a funeral. I'm all for smaller government, and less regulation, but I'm also aware that I enjoy safe roads for my family. Blatant disregard for safety, and proudly bragging of avoiding responsible action kinda stinks. Source -- I'm not American, but I'm still free... free to do anything really. I also know I'm gonna get the derr derr 'murrica - land of the free - you ess aye, you ess aye, you ess aye response, and that'll just illustrate my point for me.

I live in the California high desert. They installed those cameras for about 2 years and then took them out. The problem- 1) the tickets come through 1st class mail so there is no proof the guilty party received it. 2) Traffic violations are a misdemeanor which means it has to have been done in the presence of an officer. That didn't happen. 3)I run a small business that has people driving around in my company vehicles. They mailed to ticket to ME and asked me who was driving the vehicle! Circular file!

There was a tv show in Canada back in the 90's called "Royal Canadian Air Farce". Shortly after photo radar became a thing they did a skit where one of the characters came into the house complaining that he got dinged by a photo radar trap and he told the wife to get the photo radar payment kit out. Wife comes out with a polaroid camera and a bunch of cash. Guy grabs the cash, wife takes a picture of the guy holding the cash then mails the picture as payment.

Been driving thru the same Aurora, IL intersection for over 10yrs, would stop once a month to twice a week at Burger King for breakfast, come out, go right on New York St., stop, turn right on Eola Rd. Got 2 notices in 1 week last September with pics of me in middle of turn. Intersection with the sixth most crashes of 2017 in Aurora, no signs saying no turn on red. Driving my personal work truck so I never take any chances after seeing all the wrecks

[@THEMANCAVE2023]

That’s why I bought a 2019 Honda Civic sport naturally aspirated 6 speed. Because they still make manual transmission. My old car 2007 Camry manual I traded in for Honda with 345,00 miles in still ran great but I took the 1500 dollar for trade

[@thivakarsaravanamuthu4744]

[@nightstalker824]

There is always a loop hole. Here in Texas, if a city cannot opt out of a contract for whatever reason, then the use of red light cameras is legal until the contract expires. That could be 10 more years. Here in San Antonio, there are a few municipalities that still use them.

[@carm2005]

In Minnesota, a traffic violation goes to the vehicle driver at the time, not the owner of the vehicle. Photo enforcement was basically ruled un enforceable in Minnesota, since 99.99% of the time. A photo never showed who was driving in a clear enough way to be beyond a shadow of a doubt. All you had to do was go to traffic court and say you weren't driving and they'd overturn the traffic infraction.

Someone needs to make a T shirt with Scotty "raising the roof" or one of him conducting an orchestra.

[@glennjarvis2672]

They're legal in Canada (province of Ontario at least). Photo radar is being installed in school zones and we have also have red light cameras. Just in case any of our southern neighbours drive over to visit, the system here has connections to collect south of the border, depending which state you're from.

In Los Angeles California, the red light camera tickets were $500 each. Then they took them off but they still take a picture. The thing to do is just ignore it, they never send you anything else after that. They got rid of them like 3 years ago or so.

I have a '09 Honda Fit automatic. One reason I chose the auto is that with the manual the final drive ratio is different meaning the rpms are higher with the manual on the highway. I think they did this so the cruise control could maintain speed better on the manual without lugging the engine.
