I learned this the hard way. I took a trip to Arizona last Xmas. while I was driving well above the posted limit on I-10, just outside of Buckeye, I saw a bright flash from the side of the highway... Little did I know, I had entered a "photo enforcement zone"!!!!

I got this in the mail last week!!!! [Mad]

Its actually kinda funny because I look nervous in the picture because I was biting my nails LOL...

Damn dude that sucks.Yeah i just got one a few months ago and it was $165.00 dollars..I hate these damn cameras out here. I heard they might be gettin rid of them..

Posted by Diamond Dave (Member # 5023) on :

They have those everywhere out there. And all kinds of police cars too, not just Crown Vics with a few random Chargers.

Getting a DUI out there is pretty shitty. Zero tolerance no matter your age. Car get's impounded, and you are sent to tent city for 30 days.

Posted by hes2quick (Member # 8916) on :

Yup and we have the breathalyzer out here too so you can start your car up.Tent City is no joke. and plus you get to wear pink jumpsuits lol

man i hate this state!

you can just throw that shit away though. theres a huge issue going on about that right now. the only way they can hold you responsible is if they actually hand it to you. don't do shit with it. now if they send someone to serve you with papers, then pay it, but until then, just ignore it. trust me, i've gotten a couple of those, the courts are in the middle of fighting the legality of the cameras, it's a big mess out here.

Had to see what kind of power that Mazda 3 gas saver was workin with!!!

But in a way, it is BS... If an actual officer would have pulled me over & got me fair & square, it wouldnt be an issue, but an automated camera is BS if u ask me....

LOL!!! I didnt even know I can see the vid... Your right, I was flyin LOL!!! Oh well, they got me, but IMO, I will still say that its BS because I didnt get pulled over by a patrol car. Technology is a BITCH!!!

Posted by Reloaded83 (Member # 8647) on :

Ahhhh good old traffic cameras in AZ. Last year when I drove out there I was forewarned about those cameras many times thankfully because I probably wouldn't have payed attention either!

well, don't throw it away, but don't pay that shit. if they are serious about having you pay it, they will serve you with the ticket, then you have to pay it, but they can't prove you actually got it in the mail. trust me. just forget about it.
