[quote=Anonymous]I was just complaining about this! I got one this month from 44th St NW and Fessenden - $100! Similar to below I had stopped though likely not 100% regulation.

She got a $100 photo ticket for going a few inches over the line, she says, at a stop sign at 37th Street and Whitehaven Parkway NW.

Images of her vehicle at the intersection show her brakes lights were on, said Goldfield, a retired documentary filmmaker. The fine for what she deemed a non-offense was unreasonable, but contesting the ticket seemed pointless.

Goldfield said she “resented it heartily.”

“I think it’s just a way for the city to cash in on people not in 1,000-percent compliance and don’t even know that they’re not,” she said. “I’m all for safe driving ... but the rules have got to be clear.”
