[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]8:52 - that's good to know.  I got one a few years back coming back from the beach, and was surprised that I was even able to speed on route 50.  Typically when I'm coming back, traffic is super slow and backed-up.  (Mine was $50 - I had no idea they would give you a ticket for 1 MPH over - that is kind of messed up.)[/quote]

There are seasons when New York Avenue seems pocked with potholes, but for the District it is paved with gold.

It likely is one of the most lucrative streets in the world when it comes to collecting a hidden toll in traffic tickets, its gantlet of speed and red-light cameras taking in an average of $30,570 a day and a total of more than $28 million since the start of fiscal 2011.

While some drivers bristle at use of the cameras — including many who travel New York Avenue from the Maryland suburbs — an overwhelming number of District residents surveyed are pleased with the citywide deployment of them.

The nine New York Avenue cameras, spread over about three miles between the Washington Times building and Third Street NW, generated 93,313 tickets and almost $11.8 million last year. Five target red-light violators; four go after speeders. [/quote]
