Have you guys down here in south florida had a ticket issued from those cameras ?

Any way to fight it or just pay up.

yea dude from what i understood i guess its a law that you need to stop for X time ( i was told 15 sec not sure how much credibility this has, the ticket does not say 15 sec just says you failed to stop when the picture shows me stopped with my break lights on.) before you make a right on a red light. It shows on the ticket i waited 2.5 sec i guess thats not enough...

Normally I'd say don't even bother challenging camera tickets, but that sounds like a perfect ticket to challenge. Most red light tickets are pictures of you going through an intersection after it turns red, and you'll never beat that kind of evidence in court. The picture you described shows no evidence of anything illegal, and only says that you waited less than the required amount of time. Sounds like bullshit to me, and I'm not surprised considering how hard up for cash the city is and how few people challenge those types of tickets. Take it to court and get it thrown out. BTW, what intersection was it?

I just got the Escort 9500iX because those cameras are popping up all over now were I live. I works great for this.

Its was North Miami and 123rd st. Be carefull around that area there are a few including one over by 95 that grabs a lot of ppl.

This is really what aggravates me the only purpose they serve is to bring more money into N. Miami. No police officer would ever issue a ticket for such a thing.

I got one of those in Houston... Stupid cameras..

I almost wish that they would just add another tax to fuel and leave me alone. All they want is to take our money and waste our time.

Three damn tickets so far...all camera tix

Right turn without stopping
Red light. (was yellow but a long intersection)
Right turn on red not allowed (the sign was super far back)

It's funny how no points are issued, just fines...about $600 so far

They are annoying.

If there is a radar detector that can detect these cameras as well as speed cameras...I'll buy right now!

Someone shed some light on this

i looked it up and could not find anything on it. So im guessing whoever told me this is full of it. What i did find is you need to come to a complete stop and then continue on your way.

I know about the coming to a complete stop rule but I coudn't find anything about the 15 seconds either so it's probably complete BS. Make sure you fight the ticket.
