Black2003SS Posted June 20, 2008 Report Share Posted June 20, 2008 If you dont pay it, they can put it on your credit, not just your record. However, the use of them in many states have been challenged. It would really help to know what city it happened in and know those laws and how they handle things.

NashSS Posted June 20, 2008 Report Share Posted June 20, 2008 Well they are being challenged around here and haven't been in use for a while but they haven't ruled them out yet so there just sitting there until everything is confirmed which who knows how long it will be but as far as I know it doesn't go on your record at all as long as you pay the ticket. My brother got a few speeding ones and one red light one and he gone to court lately for other tickets for speeding and those were never brought up. The reason they don't go on your record is because they can't prove that it was you driving because either A) Picture is to blurry to see a face and even then its not clear enough to prove it was you driving and B) They mostly take pictures at and after the light showing you didn't hit your brakes and stuff like that and they are focused on your license plate. So I wouldn't be worried about it going on your record as they can't prove it was you driving your truck. Obviously it was your truck but other than that they don't have jack. Hope this helps.

scooter3 Posted June 20, 2008 Report Share Posted June 20, 2008 Sorry dude, I should have warned you about these damn cameras. They are everywhere. Even on the freeways to catch speeders so don't go over 70 on the 101 around Scottsdale. They are hard to beat unless you can prove you were not driving the truck. Just take the class. Cost less then the ticket and should not affect your insurance depending on who you have. Won't add points either. Good luck man! Oh yeah, watch out for the popo out in Avondale and Tolleson.

eric.dally Posted June 20, 2008 Report Share Posted June 20, 2008 As a joke since they sent you a picture of you speeding you should send them a picture of a check. They might not think that is too funny though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nuzman Posted June 21, 2008 Report Share Posted June 21, 2008 I can't figure out how in the world those cameras are constitutional. Not to mention how the pictures escape the rules of evidence regarding photographs. I would fight that all day long. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
