The cammera picked up people driving from right to left on the video.

"I" got one of those for driving through Cedar Rapids IA. Of course "I" wasn't driving but "I" had to pay for the dang thing. Had I not held a non-resident license I would have told them to pound salt.

Sure, he gets the "opportunity" to take off work and go challenge a ticket he never should have gotten. Now will the state reimburse him for forcing him to take the "opportunity"?

The Baltimore City speed camera ticket alleged that the four-door Mazda wagon was going 38 miles per hour in a 25-mph zone — and that owner Daniel Doty owed $40 for the infraction.

But the Mazda wasn't speeding.

It wasn't even moving.


...

The city's speed camera contractor, Xerox State and Local Solutions, says each potential citation goes through two layers of review to weed out any that have a deficiency, such as an illegible license plate.

Then a Baltimore police officer must review the citation before approving it for issuance to the vehicle owner. Each citation says the officer swears or affirms that the car was going at least 12 mph over the speed limit "based on inspection of the recorded images." The officer's signature is also printed.

...

The owner of the car is a lawyer. I hope they publish the names of who signed swearing the car was speeding.

The pig should be charged with perjury, plain and simple. Also, the camera needs to be ripped down and never replaced. The unethical, unreliable, and fraudulent theft of the people's wealth should not go unchecked.

The department has said that a single officer can review up to 1,200 citations in a given day.

This is what our tax dollars are paying these LE to do.

Baltimore is full on retard anyway.

Yeah how gracious of them to allow him the opportunity to prove his obvious innocence
