6 days agoA little over a decade ago I slid to an icy stop as the yellow light came on in a turn only lane, about an hour north of Seattle. The guy in front of me tried to stop and ended up going through the intersection as the light turned red. I got a ticket with a photo of the intersection, but you could clearly see my car was stopped a good four feet behind of the line. It was dismissed, but I was pretty mad that I even had to fight that.
I don’t know if the tech has improved or if they have people double checking tickets before they are issued now, but I can’t say my experience made me feel positive about the automated ticket system lol
I did that around the 2020 election and got a very sad text back that a real human sends those texts and didn’t deserve the “abuse”
So if anyone is wondering, 'fuck off" worked great in rural America years ago. Maybe it still does, because I didn’t get any local calls last year asking for my money and vote
