I didn't know DC was using photo radar. And I probably had my V1 on at the time. Well at least there's no points involved.

This was on 295 South just past Pennsylvania Ave SE. The speed limit is 50 and they say I was doing 66 on a Monday afternoon at 4pm. I have one month to pay the $100 fine or else it goes to $200.

I'd fight it if I could but the truth is I was probably doing that speed. The picture they provided looks like I was the only car on the road.

DC drivers beware!

and i know that car you are talking about - that section. They have been doing it there for over a year.

Can you get a wreckless ticket from photo radar tickets? Probably not since they can't ID the driver, right?

i got one on canal road for going 42/35

She thought she saw a flash from a car on a side street. Is that how they get you?

Sandy: Baby Mama

crap...there's one there too? Is there a limit on how many tickets you can get a daily commute?

Mr.D-'97 A4q 12v

Would probably get one for 36 in 35.

If I wasn't driving, I can fill in the name and address of whoever was driving my car, and then they get the ticket.

I doubt they would ever give a ticket for reckless based only on photo radar. In VA, reckless is a required court date, and photo radar is simple revenue generation without getting the courts involved. It keeps costs down and maximizes profits.

So they might send a stern letter about the speed if it were in the category of reckless, but probably still just give you a stiff fine.

Mine was listed as "16-20 MPH over the limit".
