More red light cameras to be installed in Los Angeles

I just heard on NBC news that more red light cameras are going to be installed in Los Angeles. It was more specific about some intersection where lots of people speed through, and these need to be put in for safety. Garbage. Ticket Assassin sets it straight. It’s all about money.

Keep Ticket Assassin bookmarked, and tell your friends. I know I posted this at All Narfed Up, but now I saw it on my local news, and I’m assuming my friends will hear about it.

For the record, I’m helping my mom fight her red light camera ticket with this site, so I’ll be posting about that when we get a response from the court.

Update 12:00pm 8/7/06: I found the LA Times article explaining what Los Angeles intersections will have red light cameras installed. It was posted on July 11th, 2006, but I think they’re up today. Malarkey!

    Where I live the cameras are very obvious and they started with a couple months of just warning tickets, picking intersections with a fair number of accidents.

    When the cameras actually ticket someone, they also fire off a flash of light so everyone knows about it.

    It has been interesting. A lot fewer people run those intersections.

    Today’s mail brought the shocking news that you’ve been issued a $300 ticket for running a red light!! How did that happen especially when you don’t remember it?

    Ticket details say the incident happened two weeks previously while you were working your way through the traffic snarl at a busy intersection. A red-light camera that you didn’t notice was installed at that intersection and a minor red light traffic violation triggered the camera’s flash. Now your license plate number is a part of Big Brother’s files.

    Is there a deterrent to this to avoid paying huge fines in the future? Yes, there is . . it’s called “Photo Blocker.” Available in a simple red aerosol can, the clear spray is 100% legal, unlike some license plate covers. The spray diffuses the camera’s flash, overexposing the picture, thus making your plate illegible to the camera but not to the naked eye.

    “Photo Blocker” has been winning driver raves from coast to coast and overseas. It’s been a featured subject in electronic and print media, such as the Chicago Sun-Times and CBS and ABC News. The suggested retail is $29.99 for a long-lasting, one-time application aerosol can.

    photo blocker does work but now the cameras also have streaming footage that is recorded and thats how they really bust you. On top of the ticket that you will get from running the red you will also get a ticket for using photo blocker for abaiting the law. Good try but try again.

  • Depends how you look at it November 16, 2009
    Silas and I were supposed to meet up with other photography classmates for long exposure photos from Cow Canyon Saddle by Mt. Baldy Village1. That didn’t happen. Once we got to the turnout on Glendora Ridge Rd, we just saw a sign and a road leading into an RV park. There wasn’t a mention of Cow Canyon [...]

    I didn’t ask Bill to pose or smile. I liked his second portrait, but that wasn’t as sharp. Boo me. Reflections of myself and Bill’s dad (upper left) was deliberate. Taken inside his dad’s garage, and hopefully soon to be his recording studio. View on Flickr

  • A gift of film November 10, 2009
    Jon Swanson emailed me last Friday and asked if I wanted any color Fuji 35mm film. He didn’t tell me how many rolls he had in his possession. Most importantly, he didn’t want a dime. I asked him how much he had, but he persisted that I give him a number. I requested eight rolls of 200 film1. [...]

  • One of my first prints November 5, 2009
    I tried to get this scanned print as close to the real thing as possible. I cropped out the white borders since they weren’t clean. I didn’t write down how I exposed this in the enlarger – shame on me, I guess. Lastly, since this was our first assignment, our teacher hadn’t shown us contrast filters [...]
