I was going about 36 mph in a 30 mph zone, there was no indication of a speedcameras anywhere, will i get points for this?

i was going through Downey in between South St. and Candlewood in Lakewood, CA. three times. On the third time i suddenly saw a flash from a speed radar saying i was going 40 mph on a 35 posted speed limit. I didn’t know that there was a camera installed. I just saw the flash once in the three times i passed that street but im sure that i was above 35 mph all three times, and it was just all in 6 hours. Im not sure if I was also flashed in the other two times that i passed that street, it was in the middle of the day so i was thinking maybe it was too bright thats why i didnt see the flash? And how much would my fine be. Plus the car wasn’t registered on my name. HELP!!!
Please.
i really saw the flash because the third time, it was getting dark and i was just flashed with this bright light in front of the speed radar.

It’s late at night. I’m driving with my mother in Fremont, CA a week before my wedding. She’s been sleeping on my couch for three weeks helping me sew the 5 bridesmaids’ dresses while I finish my own wedding dress. THREE WEEKS with my mother sleeping on my couch one thin wall away from my husband and mine’s bed. It’s been a long day of errands, frazzled meetings with florists and hairdressers, and a long frantic plea with the nice people at Eddie’s Quilting Bee to fix my sewing machine so I can finish my wedding dress. I’ve been driving all day from Berkeley to San Mateo to San Jose to Fremont. I’m driving along a horribly signed road trying desperately to find my way on to the right highway. The cars just in front and next to me are moving a little faster than me. I’m squinting at a bent sign I can hardly read to make sure I don’t miss the on ramp (for the second time). Next thing I know I’m nearly blinded by a couple of flashes of bright light. Somehow the car right in front of and next to me made it through the intersection, but it turned red just before I entered.

Now I have a ticket. The ticket has four lovely photos. One of my face, of my license plate, one of my car before the intersection with a clearly red light and one of my car passing through the intersection with a clearly red light.

I’m not saying I didn’t run the red light, but I’m not a bad driver. I’ve never gotten a ticket. I never run red lights on purpose. I don’t violate the carpool lane. I don’t get road rage. I don’t tailgate. I don’t cut people off. I always use my turn signal, even to change lanes. I never use my phone while I’m driving (even before it was illegal). I don’t even speed much.

Is there a way I can avoid the point on my license without paying $381 for the “bail” plus the $420 they want me to pay to do traffic school when I’m clearly guilty of the offense. Is there some sort of probation I can request? Or leniency with the fine? Or dismissal on grounds of good behavior and a clean record? Temporary insanity due to mother invasion of my couch?

I really don’t have the money. I just paid for a wedding I could only afford because my father graciously offered to pitch in even though he doesn’t really have the money.

Any advice would be great. Thanks.

In Arizona, I received a speed camera ticket in the mail.

I was doing 77 in a 65. I am man enough to admit I could of been going fast, though there are some times where you need to increase you speed a little such as passing, merging, avoiding an accident.

I remembered when the camera flashed at me. I was going fast in order to merge into a exit lane.
I can’t prove this, so I don’t even know if that would even be an excuse in court.
I do think it sucks though as other cars on the road were going just as fast. I probably was just in that position on the road for the camera to get a good photo of me and my tags.

I know some of you will say slow down and pay the fine…a hefty $201.50 and some of you will say that you must be served in person in order for the ticket to be valid.

** My concern is it better to just pay the fine and learn to watch my speed. $201.50 is alot of money to me, but I am more worried if speed camera tickets in AZ will cause my auto insurance to go up or get points added to my driving record.
I fear that with my bad luck, if I do ignore the ticket, I’ll be one of the few who will be served in person and end up paying extra fees for that and having my insurance go up because I ignored paying the ticket.

But then, AZ is slowly getting rid of their speed cameras so I don’t know if this will help me at all with not having to pay the fine.

You spray it on your plate and when you go pass a red light the glossy spray reflects the camera light and your license plate shows up blurry and you avoid a ticket.

Last night as I was driving through an intersection there was flashes… I’m assuming it was the camera for speeding because the light was green…

It was late at night and I sped up to pass a car that was swerving in his lane and almost bumped into my truck, prolly was a drunk driver any way I chose to get ahead of him so I would avoid an accident. I was going no more than 15 over and that’s at the most it was probably less than that.

About when can I expect it in the mail? Also will the address be from the police department or city?

I read online you don’t have to do anything because legally you have to sign for. Ticket and that they don’t follow up in person unless you have lots of unpaid tickets which in m case I never have gotten a ticket ever because I don’t speed unless in a situation like last night.

So im freaking out it’s going to be a high priced ticket and I can’t afford one at all right now.

So what should I do and is it true you don’t have to do anything if it’s by mail?

I was driving down Canyon Crest drive in Riverside California on a steep slope, I rounded a curve at and a flashing radar sign gave out a white flashing light like it was taking a picture.
I am not sure if it was taking a photo are not, but I didn’t c any camera. All i saw was on top of the electronic speed radar was a light that flashed, I didn’t see an actual camera while I was driving down. Did I get a ticket?

I’m thinking about putting a Car surveillance system in my car. It would run on a separate power source along with powering on when the car is on. It would also have the date and time when its recording.
It would consist of a total of 3 camera’s. One either on my dash facing forward or on the opposite end of the rear view mirror.
One in the Middle of my car where the light is facing my odometer.
And One placed behind the backseat facing my rear.

They would hopefully be small camera’s and since I have tinted windows along with my car being black it wouldn’t be noticeable. I’ve seen the set-up in another Rx-8 and it helps a lot as its perfect for evidence in vehicle accidents along with body shop abuse. It would be expensive as I know but I’m not too worried about that as much as how it would be set up.

Reason I’m doing this is mainly because my friend had gotten a ticket on the freeway for speeding even though he was going 60 in a 65 zone on the freeway. Ticket said he was going 70 and I was right there when it happened. The camera in the middle would always be focused on my tachometer where it shows the speed in case I ever get pulled over for speeding, I will present that in court to help my case. Along with the other camera’s in case I ever get into a accident. Radar detectors are nice but I don’t like relying on them too much.
Another incident where I read it helped a guy find out that his car was being abused and driven around for fun by the people that worked at the auto-shop instead of being repaired. He also had surveillance camera set up in his car. The auto-shop workers were unaware that it was recording the whole time.

In all this would be a safety precaution/measure if anything like this would happen in the future. I, however do plan on keeping my car for a very long time.

*I live in California if that helps.

Any advice/opinion or even recommendations on products?
