I once heard about a lady who got nailed by the speed on green camera at 14th St and Northmount, and then got nailed AGAIN by a photo radar van parked 500m down the road. Yes, two tickets in the span of about a minute, on the same road.

Far as I know, she still had to pay.

What are my options here? I can't dispute them but can i get them lowered? If so do i do this at the new court house?

is this right at the 90 zone? I always wondered why people would blow by me when I slowed to 90. I always assumed there was a camera somewhere around there and didn't understand why people felt the need to ride my tail then rip around me just because I wanted to avoid a ticket.

It should pick it up as it's got GPS on it. Either the camera is extremely new and it hasn't been updated as a speedcam spot yet or it wasn't on.

I'll make a run by there tomorrow and check it out with the same detector.

Speed cameras (like the red light kind) don't use radar, they use magnetic loops in the pavement, so your radar detector won't pick them up.

Now can i get these ticket reduced?

In one of the tickets theres a picture with my vehicle and another vehicle in the same lane so i thought i could fight it if its radar.

Won't matter. If you look at the top it will have a speed and a lane number. The cameras can discriminate between lanes when taking speed measurements.

You can probably get it reduced by just showing up and saying sorry and asking.

The 9500ix is not just a radar detector, it has built in gps and a memory that is loaded with red light cameras and speed camera locations so it can still alert you. For the future 2blue that detector can be updated on passports website with all the new camera locations.

You realize that it is illegal in Alberta to install or have installed any device the obscures a license plate right?

If you get stopped and they see it, the can ticket you for each one and even have the vehicle towed I believe. The simple solution to this is not to speed or if you still want to go fast, don't speed through intersections with cameras.

I actually remember this article in the Herald. She actually went through a multinova, then got stopped a block away and got a ticket from a cop behind a radar gun. Both the cop and the multinova contractor had no idea they were both there.

Once it got in the papers, they tossed out the cop's ticket, so she only had to pay the multinova one, no demerits.

How would you get them reduced? You WERE speeding and that is what the judge will say.

False. They will reduce them if you ask. I went in as an agent for somebody else and had 3 speed-on-green tickets reduced simultaneously to half the speed. It knocked about $250 off the fines.

Yup. Just walk in and tell the judge it's downright unfair that with your top of the line laser jammer and radar detector you still got caught speeding. Make sure you also mention that you'll continue to drive recklessly and that you plan to illegally obstruct your license plate to ensure it doesn't happen again.

OP, there's a company out of Vegas (I think) that uses the same technology as that privaplate company as well...so you might be able to get ahold of it easier.

Either way, you might want to consider how it works. You have to activate it via a switch (or button, w/e)... so unless you plan to drive around all day with an obscured plate, you have to know when to activate it. Clearly, you can't figure out where the speed cameras are, so what the hell kind of benefits will a plate hider have if you don't know when to use it? :rolleyes:

you seem to be missing the point. Instead of elaborate systems using radar detectors and plate blocking systems. Why dont you STOP SPEEDING. Like a douche.

Or if you must speed just accept you are going to get some tickets? The whole system you are talking about wouldnt have helped you in this case anyways because your radar detector didnt go off anyways.

Kid ha ha ha.

This system will work perfect. As long as the detector is programmed for the camera. I'm not alone i have a few guys that like this idea and are jumping on board. If you own a sports car that does over a 100 in first gear you would be looking for ideas also. Call me dumb in person not online thats a chicken shit way.

And thats after the update. Is this not a system/database that is partially based upon updates as supplied by users as well? If so, then report the updates you feel are required and if you feel if there's still some unresolved problems, then make your beef known there instead of here. Never the less, most fairly attentive human beings are well aware where many of the red light/speed on green cameras are on their regular routes and usually are quite adept at adjusting their driving styles as required. There's also the signage that is easily spotted at every intersection with these cameras - I guess you pay to play and especially so if you're going to try to rely solely upon a device to warn you of these camera's locations.

Assuming you actually knew what you were doing (doubtful, I remember your last thread on laser diffusers), every false alarm you get will flip your plate out of sight until your detector has been programmed to ignore that particular alert. You'd be driving with your plate flapping up and down for 70% of MacLeod Trail.

DUMB. You spent money on a system that won't work for at least 14 cameras. Do I really need to tell you in person? And shit every car I've owned/driven can go over 110km/h, why do I need a sports car that can go 100 in first gear? Hell my bike does well over 100 in first gear and I have no need for this. If I speed, get caught, I deserve the ticket.

Plus you don't think eventually someone will report you for your plate flipping up? Shit, if I saw your plate flip around I'd report you just to be that guy. Then I'd make a sweet thread on beyond about it.

Hey squirt,

So if the detector is alerted by the camera and therefore flips the plate automatically, Will this happen only when you pass the camera at lets say 10 kph over the limit? otherwise if it automatically flips at all speeds what happens if you have a cop behind you? Either way this idea is as childish as the mind which created it.

I always drive around 20 over the limit, except playgrounds and residential areas. I see a red light camera or a van on the side of the road, I slow down. I pass by and then I get back to my crusing velocity. No tickets in 3.5 years. I laught at people that spend money on detectors, scramblers, "invisible plate" BS.

Well you speed in alberta you get an alberta speeding ticket. We pay them because we know we were speeding.

Like if I blow a red, even under the most retarded condition and get a ticket I'll still pay, not because I like throwing my money away but because I understand that I was in the wrong.

So I assume you have a Arizona plates....

Did you get the letters for the tickers at your home in Arizona?

I wonder how many people pay?

Does the provincial gov keep these on file for when people are pull over again in Alberta like in other countries? ;)
