[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]the stop sign cameras are absurd. if you dont stop long enough to eat a sandwich, they will ticket you. [/quote]

It’s true. There should be an investigation.

People who are criminals or indigent don’t pay their tickets and don’t give an f. Rest of us pay endlessly. I bet there could be a class action lawsuit for the disproportionality. [/quote]

I would love this. $75 for traffic tickets in MD where apparently my back wheels didn't make a complete stop on a road with no one in sight around 2 pm in a residential neighborhood.  Why is this even allowed? Who made up the charge? Why does this intersection need a camera and for all day long?[/quote]

Next time, obey the law by coming to a complete stop at the stop sign.
