I had a parking ticket yesterday; my car overlapped a yellow curb by about three feet. $55.00.
Texas passed a law years back aimed at speed traps. It was aimed at a few (IIRC one was at Quitaqua) that required municipalities to share revenue collected on state hwys with the state. Really cut back on crooked speed traps.
One small town near here (Agua Dulce, TX) uses the dirty trick of catching the first cars through the school zone as the school zone light starts in the morning, though it wasn’t flashing as they passed it. It still wasn’t flashing after he stopped me. He gave me a ticket anyway.
