Dude thereās almost no chance you can overturn this! The cameras are wicked accurate. Pay up. Trust me youāll go to dc, maybe not tomorrow or day after. Your car will be towed and this will keep going up if you donāt pay
Ask to see the technical specs that the camera uses to gauge distance and speed so you can have an engineer look verify its accuracy.
No personal experience with this, but it is my understanding that municipalities don't like giving that information out.
DC tickets are unique in that they can send the fed govnt after you if you donāt pay. So if you miss the payment it doubles and then after that you get arrested by secret service and they question you and stuff like that. Not a good process overall. Jk I have no idea
Pretty sure this is why JFK was shot
Maām/Sir OP - just pay up and keep it moving. Take it as a very expensive lesson
I got that ticket too. Was pissed af but paid. Seems very difficult to contest / little chance of success.
I dunno, I contested mine4 months ago, but never got a response. But when I put the ticket number in on the payment portal, now it only says I owe $100
Background - i drive a Hellcat... speeding happens a little more frequently than Iād please
Yep, DC sucks for tickets and itās gotten worse during the pandemic because traffic is so minimal
Yea I got a ticket for going 55 past exit 4 on 395 N.
Apparently the speed limit is 40! Who would have known. I did notice they took the speeding camera out as it was flashing pretty much non-stop..
Use Waze. Itāll tell you where the speed traps are
Itās not at all up to date. None of the tickets Iāve gotten have had cameras that are on Waze or Google.
If you lease your vehicle then they will send the ticket to the financing group and they will come after you. I received a speeding ticket by camera on the dc stretch of 395 where it drops to 40 too...my appeal took 6 months and I only had to pay half the fee.
What was your basis for appeal? did you give a reason?
Yeah i got mine on the 395 stretch as well. Thanks for all the insight! I was going quite fast lol
damn I didnāt even know highways have speed cameras š
Foggy bottom is like a trap
How much was the ticket?
400$
Pay your ticket... you broke the law. And stop coming to DC and speeding your vehicle around the city. People live here. Many pedestrians and cyclists are injured or killed by reckless out-of-state drivers.
D5 Iām talking about the ones right off the highway. Pedestrians arenāt magically walking across 395 when there isnāt even a crosswalk
