If i go through one of those red light camera lights i always give my bike a reach around and cover half my tag with my hand, but luckily there is only one of those around where I live
Marthy, how big of a fine? Most insurance companies will not bother to check your records if you're already their customer and just renewing at the end of the policy year. Your records matter much more if you're shopping for a new quoute.I was pulling out the apartment complex, when I got to the stop sign I almost stop, let the car drive by (I was barely rolling try to keep my balance holding the clutch...) and I turn and kept going. That fkr what hiding in the bushes with the radar gun. He pulled over the lady that drove by in front of me at the stop sign and me too. I stop and says "what???"
He made sure to tell me that I needed to be careful on the bike and make my stop sign so I don't hurt myself... no $hit! If I really wanted to blow the stop sign, I would have done it in style... like on 1 wheel or something like that.
But... since I didn't really have any good thing to say, I kept quite. Glad he didn't notice I never did my change of address... for 1 1/2 year. :spank:
I'll get it done this week... :zombie:
It's been proven that there are more accidents caused by red light cameras, as well as finding several cities who shorten the length of the yellow light in order to catch more offenders and boost revenue.
Just last month there was the latest in a rather long line of reports noting that red light cameras tend to increase the number of accidents because people slam on their brakes to stop in time, leading to rear-ending accidents.
Come to Chi Town. W have the worlds shortest yellows at the cameras. DON"T BLINK!
The cameras are purely revenue. Now we have a first.......Our Governor and Mayor have decided to put speed cameras around school zones and parks. This is "purely for the safety of kids" There were more kids killed by gunfire in the past 5 yrs on school grounds than injured by car crashes. WHOOOOOPS! Now people are going to be focusing on their speedos rather than focusing on the road watching for kids
To top it off Arizona, the state that started the speed cameras, is taking most of them down because they don't generate enough revenue any longer. People alter their habits. Only here the leaders of this fine state and city won't go by the results elsewhere.....its for the children. :zombie::surrender:
True story on a red light citation I received. I was on my way home from work late in the night. I was ambushed in my personal car by two gangbangers who followed me and pulled a gun on me at a light. They began chasing me while I got on the horn to call 911. I blew a red light camera and got a ticket. They also blew the light as well. I contest the violation in person at a hearing. I have the police report, the arrest report as they ended up catching both guys and their truck ( an 89 Chevy Suburban ghetto raming machine). No joke they play the video at the hearing, the tape shows me blow it and then shows them chasing me with a gun clearly out the window in the same frame. I was told to pay up.......I was not in an emergency vehicle with light on. WTF. I appealed as well and lost that decesion. HOLY #$% :rant::rant: Everyone in the hearing room just walked out after that.

Good God, swatguy and Chevyfazer. That's enough to make someone go postal. Local governments run amuck. Sheesh.
So, Marthy, whatchagonnado? :wav:
Sounds like a stupid law, glad we don't have to come to a full stop in the UK.

Send a check! Don't have time to go to school or go sit in a court house...
I was paying my second fine (traffic light... yellow by the way!) in one month and I just notice this.
