An exposed photo radar manual shows details on how to steal, use, operate, and maintain the cameras. In an article released by KFYI, Dow says that the Redflex operations manual, which was supplied to CameraFRAUD by a “confidential source,” states that “judges, city workers and other city government workers cannot get tickets.” The manual also provides a flow chart, easy enough to analyze by your typical bureaucrat, how to distribute tickets—and bring in the take—to Arizona citizens. DPS appears to have all but pulled the plug on its usage of Redflex mobile photo radar units on Arizona state highways. In many cases, red light and photo radar cameras actually lead to more accidents because local governments shorten the yellows to increase the number of red light runners, while other folks slam on their brakes to beat the speed cameras, only to increase their speed again once they pass the speed cameras.
Look at the Statistics! During a study session of the City Council on Tuesday, the city manager told council members that data gathered in the year since the cameras were installed could be used to make “different interpretations.” “In effect, the jury is out on whether these cameras are making these intersections safer,” said City Manager Carl Swenson. “And that’s what we’re ultimately about. We don’t want to just give people tickets.” According to numbers from the Police Department, collisions at the four intersections have doubled since a private company finished installing red light cameras in June 2008. During the 2007 fiscal year, from July 1 to June 30, there were 36 collisions at the intersections. In fiscal 2008, there were 73. The numbers over doubled after placing photo radar on this corner. Councilman Ron Aames from the Palo Verde District said the increase suggests that the cameras might actually be making intersections more dangerous. Aames replied, “I’m thinking if these numbers were reversed . . . I probably wouldn’t hear these other ways of explaining it. “I don’t want this to be a situation where we’re just giving tickets to people and not really making the roads safer.”
Story from a friend traveling across Arizona: Thirty miles outside Flagstaff on Interstate 40, an RV broke down while they were traveling across the country this summer. They desperately tried to contact their towing company, but due to limited cell service they could not reach them. We were able to get 911, who said they would call towing. They also informed us that since it was Sunday, we’d have to wait for some time. That was the last we ever spoke to the police. The temperature was well over 90 degrees and storm clouds were swirling above. In the hours we waited outside in the heat, not one car stopped to inquire if they needed help. Better yet, not one state trooper or patrol car came by to check to see if they were OK. Where is our state highway patrol? Are we running a Department of Public Safety or a Department of Public Photo Enforcement? What they did see frequently as they traveled our roads were police cruisers taking pictures of people speeding. What about people who have the misfortune of breaking down on your highways — are there no police available to lend a hand because they are out there taking pictures? Keeping the public safe from aggressive drivers is important, but coming to the aid of stranded motorists is just as important if not more so.
From listening to both sides of the photo radar controversy for some time now, I’ve yet to find an educated opinion when it comes to supporting photo radar. Not only is this state driving vacationers away, but it’s driving its own home grown citizens out. Police officers pretending to be the kings of law on every corner, it’s scarier than downtown phoenix. Performing unlawful searches and falsifying breathalyzer reports, it’s hard to support such a government. One wonders if the statistics were available, which would make more money, the combination of dui and photo radar revenue, or the high priced taxed goods purchased by wealthy visitors. Instead of pissing off the entire state, why not set up a healthier process. While we all know photo radar is just another “play on taxes” (Tax given a safety spin to get citizens to pay) we should be thinking of real solutions to Arizona’s debt issue. Power hungry politicians and law enforcement will only drive out what’s left of such a beautiful state.

Help answer the question about beat speeding ticket
Question about beating a speeding ticket?Well I just got popped but feel I couldn't avoid it. I was coming up to a stop sign on a steep hill. At the stop sign, there is a 4 way intersection which I was turning left on. Cars were parked on both corners so I couldn't see well. So I busted my left & a car is coming FAST on my butt. So I accelerate. Look in my rear view and here comes the federale. He "gives me a break" & instead of 42 in a 25 gives me a 30 in a 25. Oh thank you officer! It's $117.
I want to fight it since I couldn't stop in the middle of the intersection and had to accelerate to avoid being hit. I've heard of radar guns not being calibrated to manufactuer's specs and people winning because of it. This ticket however doesn't seem to be radar. It says in the Nature of Offense field Speeding and in other field "Robric". Under date equip tested it say 1-4-07 (almost 2 months ago). Is this sufficient to get this dropped? Any other tips on beating this ticket? Thanks!
To the knuckleheads that are trying to give me a morality lesson – keep it to yourself! I don't care what you do-gooders think and could care less about your huffy attitude. Just answer the question that I asked – ways to beat a traffic ticket. I didn't ask if I was at fault or not. Geeeesh!
And to all those that gave me sound advice – thanks! I appreciate it.
Some of you people think that your poopie don't stink. Give it up!

You’re really good man. You’ve got excellent talent.
Nice work, you did pretty good.

how is this not a real photo?
You should be able to call the courthouse and find out the points and fine.
As far as beating it, that will be difficult. The officer is almost always given more credibility in court.
Some will probably suggest demanding the radar calibration records, records of the officer's training, or just hoping the officer doesn't show up. These methods are time consuming and rarely work.
Most people will agree your best bet would be to meet with the prosecutor, and try and negotiate a reduced fine and/or points.
Brilliant Willy, Just Brilliant =D
Perfect.
Keep resetting the court date until they will no longer allow you. Hopefully the officer will not show up to court, thus your ticket will be dismissed.
"I was not speeding, here is my proof________"
If you can't say that, you deserve the ticket, the points, and the fine.
Learn to slow down and you won't have this problem.
Go to court and hope the law enforcement officer don't show up then it is automatically dismissed, or go to traffic school and then it is dismissed after completion then again you can just pay it and not speed anymore
the amount of time you are spending on trying to beat this ticket is not very cost effective. Plus most of the sites you have researched all charge a fee.
The choice is yours pay the ticket or pay someone for the information to beat the ticket and have the possibility of still having to pay the ticket
If you were speeding and were caught there is really no way to beat it , the only thing that can happen is if when you go to court if you are fighting the ticket and the officer does not show up then it will be dismissed .
So you were speeding (why else would you admit it?) and told the Officer you were speeding when he stopped you. Well, your chances are somewhere between my becoming the Crowned Prince of North Dakota and my son's request for snow on his birthday (he was born in July and we live in the South).
Who knows, stranger things have happened, but the judge is going to love the part where you admitted it to the Officer. It will be up to the judge.
woww that’s really relax and beatiful soung .good picture of jhony depp !
Very nice!!
amazing! Willy teach me how to paint like you!
The officer in FL has to be not only Post Certified to be an officer but also has to be certified and trained on the specific type of radar equipment they are using. ( radar or lazor)
Next I forget if it is annual or bi anunal but they are required to go to training to keep thier certification up ( something many forget, can't get into a class or they are late getting the class)
so every day there are some officers running radar where thier certifiction has become outdated.
Next the actual radar equipment has to be FCC licneced and tested, and every day upon the start of his use of this equipment he has to do a tunning fork test for calibration.
There is a log carried in the car with the radar unit where they enter the test results.
You can request this from discovery of evidnece though the court. But should be doing it with an attorney.
It will cost you more to beat it, than the fine, and one ticket on your record has little effect
Prove beyond a reasonable doubt that you were not speeding.
hm i couldn’t tell the difference between photograph and painting comparing the final resault.
This is sick
