On the positive side… I ran a red, going too fast on a stormy february night… the flash got me. I never recieved a ticket. This goes to show that the cameras are not 100% accurate.

Not sure if its still this way, but it was about 3 months ago in alberta.

If you disputed the ticket, you instantly won. The reason is because it is just a machine with no person controlling it unlike photo radar and such so there is no way of them porving that their eqipment was working at the time. A few of my friends did this and got away with nothing. It could be different in BC, I dont know.

In a related story….someone runs a red light here and kills two teens. People are always running reds on this stretch apparently. So what do they do? Increase enforcement? Nope. Reduce the speedlimit!! Bastards:mad:

btw…I can't believe no one mentioned this.
The cameras are still up for some reason. But I'm pretty sure the photo ticket deals were done away with:)

The ones here in prince are up and they just take pictures for survey purposes. Thats what my driving instructor said. Apparently its just to get a figure for how many people are running red lights in the area etc.. They don't actually charge you.

Only 1/3 of the cameras acutally contain storage/film.
You're probably cool.

aahaha i have those damned machines so scammed around here. I know which intersections they are in and for which travel direction they point. So those are the only three intersections I will think twice about not stopping.

Plus they usually always have that camera warning sign.

can't get enough of that sodium benzoate…

Downtown drivers suck, they're all pussies. And they drive too far under the speed limit. DIE.
