Except for who actually committed the crime. The problem I have is that the cameras dont show who was driving.
Red light cameras are a pet peeve of mine. They are specifically written as civil violations rather than criminal due to the lessened burden of proof. So you cant walk in and say "prove it was me". Screw you. they don't have to. Dont fuck with the city's revenue stream.
As an example, my mother got one a couple of years ago. I can put my hand on any holy book you like and swear she didnt do it. In fact, I can guarantee you she wasn't within 10 miles of that intersection that day. She has a witness and the city has no actual proof she did it, only that her car was involved. Too bad, pay the fine.
Now, I would have to plead the fifth on how I know that.
