I knew this was coming when I saw the *flash* as I just missed the yellow...





closer view of the evidence:

 

wow $90!! So it would be cheaper to just speed through it before it turned red.

 

lol sounds about right..

 

I know... $90 is crazy! I was clearly guilty, so not really pissed...I get pissed for BS tickets like no front plate, or those crazy meter rules.....

 

I had one go off on me the other day, luckily I haven't put my plates on yet

 

Looks like the guy in the white car on opposing traffic probably got one of these too, he looked like he missed the yellow later than you did.

 

sux dude!!!! what intersection is that??

lesson to be learned: if light turns yellow, PUNCH IT!!!!!

 

Green: Go
Yellow: Go Faster!
Red: Not Fast Enough!!

 

yea...what intersection??? I know Peterson and Western got a camera too so if you heading to LSD from the northside, beware!!

 

That's heavy! My friend got caught in NY and it was $75 I think. We too saw the flash and I said "uh oh" but no one believed me that they now have cameras. Needless to say I was vindicated when the ticket came in the mail.

 

ok... just need to look a little harder, it says it on the ticket

 

this might be worth a try.

4400 w. North Avenue.... kedzie and north I think

 

Since I know you (sorta) it sucks you got a ticket...

BUT

I'm really glad they are hammering down on red light runners, they are one of the top causes for accidents and deaths.

People out here run reds all the time, drives me nuts. Especially when I'm on my motorcycle. Shaving a few seconds off isn't worth someones life and or their health if you t-bone someone in their car. Not to mention all of the asshats who drive through the red when there is clearly no way they will make it across and block traffic going the other way

However 95% of people are only thinking of one thing while they are driving (and or anything in life) .. and that's "me me me".

 

That's not a points ticket?

 

Wow, and that's why I try to avoid driving in Chicago, but it can happen in the burbs too.

 

Illinois is not a point system. It works on convictions, 3 moving violations in a year and your license gets suspended. It's really up to the judge though...

Here in Kansas you can pay double the fine 2x a year and they drop the ticket down to a parking violation. Worth every $$ if you ask me, because your insurance will go up for 3 years if they find out about your tickets.

 

Its 3 CONVICTIONS and your license gets suspended for 90 days.

 

I am about to bite the bullet and buy one of those plate covers that blocks your license plate.

 

is there an echo in here?

 

How are they still able to ticket the owner of a car and not the person driving. So if I borrow someones car for the day, I could run red lights all day and he gets the tickets? I still don't see how this is enforcible.

 

They turned the photo-cop off here in Minneapolis after only 8 months!

Judge said it was un-constitutional and they couldn't prove it was actually the owner driving the car...Oh, and because some noticed an INCREASED in traffic accidents since it was installed.

 

I guess

 

now CLpower, can you explain why people drive around with no plates on in Cali? Last time i was out there, half the nice cars had no plates... can you explain?

 

see post #12

 

Look on the bright side: at least your car looks really fly in the pictures!

 

Thanks....Does it work fairly well? I am not concerned with the tollway, since I have I-PASS, but rather Photor Radar or red-light cameras.

 

Yep, learned my lesson...I will be stopping @ yellows from now on in the city.... $90, no big deal... first ticket in years.. thank God we dont have a points system!

 

In Sacramento (or CA), the Red Light violation is $350!

 

I have no idea if it will work at these stoplight cameras. Considering the stoplight cameras are elevated and I was almost level with my license plate taking pictures. All I know is it works fairly well from some angles, and not so well from other camera angles.

 

dont they also ticket you for jaywalkin?

 

and you also got it in the daytime...
payed for a shitty version of mine.

 

i see brake lights and you stopped at a crosswalk........where is the violation here?
