Just got back from PA. And I was welcomed to an envelope. Inside, a beautiful picture of my license plate and a 75.00 dollar ‘civil violation’ for 11 miles an hour over the speed limit. I can guarantee, if I was speeding, it was with the flow of traffic or lower. The state just sits back and counts the income with a smile...utter BS.
My sis told me not to pay; they get them all the time. Paid anyway.
Better to pay, altho is does suck.
That was from a work zone speed camera.
No license points.
The fine is a civil fine.
Nevertheless, good that you paid it because the total cost will never be lower. Fines have a way of growing exponentially through “interest and penalties”.
I have received my first and second notice of a ticket from a speed camera in Medina, TN. I have not and will not pay. My cousin has received a ticket from the same camera as she lives in the area. She said (and other people) that it is not enforceable. Apparently after the second notice is mailed out, that is the end of it.
Also, the ticket I received said I was doing 70 in a 55 zone. How convenient that it was exactly 70 and not 68 or 72.
Twice I was driving my uncles truck (he has now been in a nursing home for a year and a half) and purposely went past that camera at 80ish MPH and never received a ticket in the mail but I got one in MY truck HA!!
Forgot to mention that this speed cameras have been outlawed in the area but the state doesn’t want to break their contract with the speed camera company so they leave them in place and operational though not enforceable.
