Default Don't need no steenkin' cops...red light camera scams in Carrol County, MD>

Heck...they photo-ticket you for stopping across the leetle white line!
Technically, you're in the intersection when the light is red....so you get a ticket. Two flashes...one when it senses a car over the line when the light is red (yeah, you're parked, waiting), and a second flash that shows you're in the intersection, same place as before, ergo you get a ticket.

LOL....it's getting a lot of airplay around here.

Default There is no money in shootings, but tickets make big bucks for cities. Read the article in the last

C&D. Gotta love Arizona traffic scameras.

I received a ticket from a photo cop in Ohio, I live in Utah, never been to Ohio. We happen to have the same plate. "AUDIOS" I am guessing that 50 Audi owner got the same notification and they just hope that a few of them pay it. The call center I called to fight it is the scamera company in Colorado. What a pain in the neck that was to deal with.
