Was anyone else lucky enough to get their picture taken by the camera on Sunday June 7th, or any other f-ing day for that matter. Apperantly I was doing 46 in a 35.
I remember talking with my brother and slowing down then all of the sudden FLASH, I guess I should have talked less and slowed more. It was an S-10 Blazer with a tall pole.
Are these things legal still in AZ? I know that red-light cameras have been disconnected in my city. I don't see any sense in fighting it unless there is an active movement to not allow this technology.
Saw that one last week. There was a sign, but I didn't have my reading glasses on. It looking something like "Please don't vandalize the enforcement vehicles". I could be wrong.....
They say you can ignore them. If they don't serve you within three months they drop it. BoatCop might know more. If it's a corporate registered vehicle they will not try to serve you. Again, dropped after a few months because of failure to serve you.
They have tried to crack down on enforcement, but who knows? coffee
Yes you are correct. BUT I understand if you sign, return, or in any way acknowledge you got the letter......you waved your rights, and you're on the hook. If you get served, you're on the hook, plus like $25. I heard they do not process serve out of state, but I don't know if this is still the case.

I dont know how these vans actually work for instance does there have to be someone in the van to take the picture or is it automatic at a certain speed that it goes off ? They have been leaving them on the 60 out by me for weeks at a time in the same spot with noone in them and the pole with the camera isnt even up.
I see them on my commute often, they seem to pick different locations to f with you. Every time I drive by one, I used to give it the "shocker", now I flip it off, should make for a good picture...
Is there always a warning sign? I think I drove by that one by the 40 a couple of weeks ago, but never saw any warning signs or anything. I think the van had a sticker with "parking Enforcement" on it or something like that.
I was in Phoenix last week for some work and got the speed radar flash on the freeway. I was doing 55, the limit, as a red dodge truck was passing me at about 58-60 mph in the #1 lane. Lets see what happens and if they are properly reviewed and sent out.
Perhaps it's a fitting venue: The Senate Retirement Committee voted to retire the state's photo-enforcement system, effective next year.
If approved by the full Legislature, the ban would apply to all cameras on the state's highway system. The state has been using the cameras to catch speeders since October.
The bill was introduced by Sen. Ron Gould, R-Lake Havasu City, as a strike-everything amendment to Senate Bill 1352, which originally dealt with the state retirement system.
Gould used the strike-everything maneuver to give new life to his push to do away with the controversial cameras after his original bill to ban photo enforcement failed to get a hearing.
"I think you've got a majority of people who don't like photo radar," Gould said, adding he is referring to the general population.
"It's too much power for the government," Gould said. "They (the cameras) can track you point to point. It's too '1984' for me," he added, referring to the novel by George Orwell.
The bill passed on a 3-1 vote and now is headed for full Senate consideration.
A measure to beef up photo en- forcement by including penalties against the driver's license for speed violations was held Wednesday after a lengthy Senate debate and appears headed for defeat.
If you read me eariler post my point it that no still camera that I am aware of that takes one single shot can determine what vehicle if faster that the nother when they are side by side. This all goes to human involvement, which is why this is all a B.S. idea to make money, nothing more than that.
If it was digital video taken at 28+ FPS, then fine, but I doubt those Ford Escape SUV's that someone paid for do not take video
I see it on the 95 just before the 40, and half way to Havasu. I get in the habit of just setting the cruise control for about 3-4 over the limit and roll on in / out...... I let others pass and find the cameras for me..devil
I do the same, always on 65 mph. The problem this time is that the speed decreases from 65 to 55 to 45 then 35. I didn't slow down fast enough between 45 and 35.
The hearing date is the 29th in Havi and I will be there at that time, I am just not sure what good contesting it will do. I was speeding but I was also slowing down, just not fast enough I guess.
A couple weeks ago there was a cop with a radar gun out the window backed into a house driveway, behind some palm trees on Lipan Rd, east of 95 in Fort Mohave. I didn't know they could use private homes like that.

Sure , the home owner probably complained about speeders so they offered their property to help catch them.
When i lived up on the hill , i had cops sit in my front yard all the time... With all the kids around and the high school punks doing 50 or more in a 25:|err
Funny thing was one of the same cars that always hauled azz by the house ended up wrecking right in front of the copdevil
I guess they didn't see that big blue 6 yard dumpster, they pushed it right into the Mercedes that was in the driveway. they even tried to run , but the whole neighborhood was out there and ended up chasing them downhand BUSTEDgrn
Oh and the camera on 95 , it got my ol lady in her work truck. Still waiting for that one
The question is, has Victorville seen a substantial reduction in traffic fatalities as a result of the cameras that the government claimed for the reason of installing the cameras? Or has it become just another way of getting money from the citizens?
i just got one in victorville, $484 . So do i just ignore it and dont answer my door for three months or pay or go to court to try and reduce it?
