Fuck those cameras, we went there a while back and got sent a ticket for a rental. I thought these speed cameras were illegal and dangerous at night on the freeway? Those flashes are bright as hell.

wait you can get tickets in a rental? doh. i guess i should expect one soon.

And through Sept. 4 had issued more than 497,000 tickets. Of those, about 132,000 recipients had paid the fine of $165 plus a 10 percent penalty, netting the state more than $23 million.

That's insane.

I wonder what percentage are stolen vehicles? AZ highways are scary :Oh crap

The city and states are more aggressive nowadays... they need the $ badly...i hate those cameras...

if other cities worked like ours do, the city does not even get the money. they pre make a deal with some primary company that pays the city a set fee and covers the costs of the cameras, installation, reviewing, and such.

haha pretty clever

Not at all unusual...

I hate speed traps

A lot of the cameras now use a red flash which I'm pretty sure uses some sort of IR to capture images.

The ones that are still white flashes you can see from 1/2 mile away if not more.

If it doesn't cause you to crash from scaring the fuck out of you (even if it's someone else getting flashed) then it could potentially cause you to crash from looking around to see who it was that got flashed.

It's ridiculous. I've ignored every single ticket I've gotten through the mail since 2002.

Lets all get Obama masks and go do the same thing.

Nice read and good point.

:1orglaugh :1orglaugh ...

ahh yeah i saw that on the news it's some others doing it as well

I think around here the city gets 25% of the money, the rest goes to the camera company

I'm going to get a Juicy D. Links Mask :thumbsup

yeah hes evil :1orglaugh :error

they installed red light cameras here, and then cut the yellow light time by a couple seconds. greedy government.

They have fixed camera locations in several places where I drive. I tend to wear a baseball cap anyway, so identifying me would be quite difficult for them. Case dismissed.

People have accused the cities of "shaving" milli seconds off the transit time normally allowed to drive through internsections, causing more people to complete the crossing in red.

Well, for his defence, this is a very valid point

shit if monkeys can smoke, why not let them drive!

:thumbsup:thumbsup

As an AZ resident, I can tell you this state is fucked up in so many ways it's laughable.

I miss living in a blue state...sweet home chicago....sigh

Wow, that's pretty funny!
