Re: Red Lights, was ENRADD

["Joseph Rae" <quattro@ptinet.net>]

You know all of this red light photo ticket stuff reminds me of a story I
once heard of a guy who ran a red light or somehow was caught by an
automated ticketing process. The man receives a ticket in the mail with a
picture of his car as proof, and so the man breaks out his handy Polaroid
camera and takes a picture of a crisp $100 dollar bill and sends that back
to the police....  About a week later he gets another letter from the police
this time with a picture of handcuffs.
Don't know if it is true or not just seems to fit with the topic....

later
