Baker has spent more money on postage sending me those tickets than they'll ever get from me paying them.

The camera tickets are about safety. Think of the children.

Doesn’t hit your credit even though they will threaten that

Uh..., yes, Baton Rouge does have red light cameras. Quite a few actually. Do you want me to point them out for you? Florida Boulevard, Airline Highway, College Drive, Sherwood Forest Boulevard all have them at various intersections. That is just off the top of my head.

I've been nailed by one in another city that I now avoid, so it looks like I'll now avoid Baker as well, not that I ever planned on going up there.

I got one in Baker years ago (I had to look and see if I posted in this thread ), I paid it because at the time, I didn't know any better. Probably about a decade ago now.

It's had the effect others have stated- I'm out near the edge of Baker and Central. Technically nonincorporated.
I will drive into Central for anything I need (auto parts, etc), and stay the frick out of Baker. It's a shame, as once that was not a bad place. Last I saw of some places, it's really fallen a lot.

Why are all the cameras in south BR and none in north BR?

1. Don’t EVER pay any of those stupid things! It’s a scam and they’re not worth the paper they’re written on.

2. If everything goes according to plans during the session there will be no more of those scameras anywhere in Louisiana.

3. I repeat, NEVER pay those stupid things!

At least Saint Gabriel has the decency to have a live police officer stop you & issue you a citation for going 2 MPH over the posted speed limit.

I had brought some employees into town for a function and they hit me with that crap. I will never spend another dime of company money in Baker city limits.

So how was Lagniappe?


You know what? I posted that in 2017. And I haven't been back to Baker since. I can't even remember where I took those clients to eat that day.

The worst that can happen is it gets turned over to collections and goes on your credit report.

Not a debt. Nothing that you voluntarily incurred. Seems like a violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act. Someone with more time and interest than me should take a look at that.
