[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why does it give speeders a “free” 11 mph over the limit? Speeding starts a 1 mph over the posted limit. 31 in a 30 is speeding. Period. It’s a speed LIMIT, not a speed MINIMUM. Compliance with the law requires you to be AT the speed limit, or slower. Fines should start at 1 mph over, not 12. That’s ridiculous. [/quote] DC gives drivers traffic camera tickets for everything. Last year, it handed out 3.3 million tickets (and they are expensive!). It has accomplished nothing. [/quote] You need to be going 10 over the speed limit in DC for the cameras to trigger. It's not written into DC law, but the police are on record saying this. I always go 8 or so over, even when passing the cameras, and have never gotten a ticket.[/quote]
