I did a google search on "Charlotte NC Red light Cameras" and found numerous articles. Several of the articles spell out the process for challenging the camera to prove that the person receiving the ticket was not the driver. Also, there was a case before the NC Court of Appeals that questioned the entire issue of red light cameras. So someone is appealing.

I am glad people are appealing. I have personally seen the cameras malfunction and I hope the law gets overturned. I understand the process for challenging the ticket, but it still comes down to you did it or you have to turn in who did. That is not a challenge of guilt or innocence because one of the two is going to be fined.

A friend of mine was given a ticket for going through the intersection I saw malfunction, and he new he was innocent, but he choose just to pay the speeding tax as opposed to fighting it. At $50 most people consider it more of a hassle to fight it then to just pay it.

The assumption is guilty and machines are considered infallible...
