[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I personally think the city and these speed cameras are getting a little out of hand. There's a total of 5 speed cameras on 295n starting from when you enter dc from the Woodrow Wilson Bridge to before you enter the bw parkway smh. The speed limit goes from 45 to 50 back to 45 and that's just terrible. The first 2 cameras entering dc from va aren't even 50yds apart and I find that such a set up. I'm not condoning speeding but I think its ridiculous to have 5 cameras on such a short interstate. The one by the BENNING ROAD exactly on 295 is hidden and u can't see it and the flash doesn't work. It's on the left when they're normally on the right and its backed up to the wall between the guardrails smh. I've travelled 295 everyday and never received a speeding ticket not once now they put a hidden camera and now here comes a 125.00 ticket for supposedly doing 11 miles over the speed limit and might I add my bf was in the fast lane and I was in the truck with him and he doesn't speed because he knows I'll slap his face if he do. The District of Columbia is full of shit. I want to fight it because the law says all cameras should be seen not hidden.[/quote]

This is fascinating. Could you please cite the relevant DC code that "says all cameras should be seen not hidden? That would be super-duper helpful![/quote]

Yes, it is such a setup 50 yards apart.  It's so unfair that they give you no time to speed in between cameras.  PLUS they hide the damn things, so you might have to drive the speed limit all of the time.

The kicker is that you are SO WORRIED about speed cameras even though your bf DOES NOT SPEED because he will get his face slapped.  I hate to use the eyeroll, but seriously there is no other response.  :roll:  and one for your bf for putting up with that shit :roll:

First and foremost the disrespect is not needed so if you're going to respond to anything I write please refrain from using profanity smh. The camera is just a computer and computers make mistakes. The cameras can snap the incorrect vehicle if there are three lanes of traffic and there's three cars the camera doesn't know who's speeding or if I speed by between two 18 wheelers one of them will get the ticket because the trucks blocked me from getting caught by the camera. There's a lot of room for error with those cameras and speeding is speeding regardless if you're going 1 or 15 miles over so I guess we are all guilty of that crime so I guess you should slow down too. If you can actually comprehend what I wrote instead of trying to be sarcastically you would've picked up the part about me not condoning speeding and neither myself nor my bf speeds so clearly the wasn't meant for me. The camera doesn't click if you're going 1-10miles over but if you're going 11 or above it does. Clearly speeding is speeding so why not ticket everybody? I still think they're rigged.[/quote]
