In some places, such as TN, you can go to court and they will send you to traffic school. There’ll still be a fine, but it won’t hit your record and cause your insurance to go up, which usually dwarfs the fine.

I live in Florida and my sister in Colorado. I was visiting her about 9 months ago and she generously lent me her car while I was there. We don’t have the photo tickets in Florida. Well, I went through a Florida green light and saw what appeared to be a lightning bolt...got flashed. My sister was upset (she was riding with me) and told me in her oh so gentle way I just cost her money and she will get the ticket blah...blah...blah...well being the bratty little brother that I am, on that ride home, I compiled several other pictures. My sister was absolutely apoplectic on arrival to her home 8-)

Anybody tried this product? EBAY_bigcan From the website: "A majority of red light & speed cameras utilize a strong flash to photograph the license plate on your car. Once sprayed on your license plate, PhotoBlocker’s special formula produces a high-powered gloss that reflects the flash back towards the camera. This overexposes the image of your license plate, rendering the picture unreadable. With PhotoBlocker, your license plate is invisible to traffic cameras yet completely legible to the naked eye." http://www.phantomplate.com/photoblocker.html

In Tennessee it won't hit your record period on a light camera. It is a civil fine and not a moving violation. If a cop gets you though it does go on your record. In Tennessee the officer has to witness the offense to cite you and it go on your record. To get around it they made it a civil fine. You don't pay you get turned over to a collection agency. Also by state law they can no longer cite from a camera photo for right turns. An officer witnessing such can though.
