    What do you think happens when a cop makes a mistake, which is more likely to happen than an automated camera?

      When a cop makes a mistake, they don’t have a photo that “proves” it isn’t a mistake. So you at least have a better chance with the right judge.

        While I hate photo enforcement as much as the next guy, this is a piss poor argument against it. Have you never been fucked over by a lying cop? I have. Camera tickets are way easier to fight.

          Sure. That’s not what I’m saying. I’m saying, with the right judge, you have a better chance fighting a red light ticket with a cop than you do with a photo which “proves” you did it. Even if it’s a small chance, it’s still a better chance.
