I thought this had been tried and declared illegal? ...you can’t challenge an automatic system, there’s no officer. (or something like that)

The town’s not doing it to make money.

++++++++++++++++

What a pile of crap. Are they donating the money, then?

“...Tickets are then mailed directly to drivers. ..”
-
NO.
Tickets are mailed to the registered owner of the vehicle.

There was a radar speed trap in north Scottsdale.
Residents got it removed.

They are doing it to generate revenue for the town.

Not mentioned, but Colorado for a long time one could just discard photo-tickets. They were unenforceable.

As of recently, new state law says if a municipality mails a ticket, you have been served and must pay or appear. You don't have to recieve it, they just have to mail it. Pretty clever right?

Maybe they should raise the speed limit to the prevailing, safe rate? At 35-45 have there been any accidents that were speed related? If not, then maybe 25 is too slow. People tend to drive a safe rate, what might be normal for that type of road. So this is all just a speed trap.

Cameras should be unconstitutional. How do you confront your accuser in court? How do you explain, identify witnesses, or in any way defend yourself when you get a ticket in the mail weeks or months later? You cannot, thus you are denied due process.

10,000 pictures of cars going over the limit and ZERO accidents.

If this were a scientific experiment, you could only conclude that the speed that the vehicles were traveling was perfectly SAFE for that road.

(”The town’s not doing it to make money”)

Oh, of course not.

Just like every speed trap. πŸš“πŸš“πŸš”πŸš”

I have a radar detector and try to watch carefully.

Still somebody ran up on my tail.

Don’t know why I hit the gas pedal I never do that. But...I did that time.

Boom! 42 mph. Thought it was 35 but no, the carefully-designed speed trap was 30.

On a highway, linking towns at least 15-20-40 miles apart.

“”The camera is permanently stationed at Bear Creek Avenue and Mount Vernon Avenue.””

For now...

I hope the courts throw these out, force them to refund everyone, and pay legal costs, plus the cost of canceling the for-profit contract with the vendor. Make them pay dearly for this unconstitutional profit-motivated crime.

"Morrison is a home rule municipality in Jefferson County, Colorado, United States. The population was 396 at the 2020 census.[5] " 396!

Avoid Morrison if there is a concert at Red Rocks. Traffic is insane.

I think most speed and red light cameras are leased from private companies. The companies receive a large portion of the fines collected. I don’t know if that’s the case here.

"The town's not doing it to make money. The town is doing it because of the tourist attraction that Morrison brings or is," lied Chief Vinelli said."

All the legal stuff aside, Americans should not be forced to learn to live under an automated all seeing eye that monitors their movements and administers law onto them.

So the people in that area should not longer have to pay local income or property taxes since these new funds will pay for those.

Residents should douse it in gasoline and light it up - even the pansy Limeys do that to theirs.

Speed cameras... You can’t confront your accuser and the owner gets the ticket regardless of who’s driving.

Makes no sense whatsoever.
