Baltimore Speed Camera System

 

The Baltimore City speed camera ticket alleged that the four-door Mazda wagon was going 38 miles per hour in a 25-mph zone — and that owner Daniel Doty owed $40 for the infraction.

But the Mazda wasn't speeding.

It wasn't even moving.

I can understand why these cameras were set on fire: http://www.poi-factory.com/node/35534

Amazing

Seems to me that the reviewing officer should be charged with making a false statement. His signature amounts to a sworn statement.

I agree with that. It is the responsibility of government not to make false statements. Additionally, that person should be seriously penalized so he doesn't do it again.

Follow-up article. Some city speed cameras have 5% error rate,

How can you

Take a rubber signature stamp to court?

All for enforcing the law

Nothing wrong with enforcing the law in a reasonable manner, but this technology, at least this particular implementation is not ready. I read that Harford county, just north of Baltimore was looking at installing these or similar devices.

lol

sorry, its too funny
