yeah I was wondering how much the "convenience" fee was going to be.


I wanna say it was $5-$10, but it was the principle of the thing. I'm not going to to beef up the profit margin of the company that processes this shite for the city. I'll drop pocket change on a stamp and an envelope.

Short version of all that he wrote.

If you get one of these in NOLA, pay it or risk the boot.

If you get one elsewhere, heed his advice and toss that mofo.

All of those words. What happens when they slap a boot on your vehicle?


I can't speak for New Orleans area, but in Baton Rouge, the city doesn't own any boots. See previous post.

I have on too for Gretna, just got the nonpayment notice with a tacked on fee. They want me to send the payment to Cleveland.


How did you receive the citation? By mail? If so, was it certified? Did you sign for it?






Same thing, fricking Gretna Brah. They mailed it to me and the 2nd notice had a late fee. No registered or certified mail. Its a scam. Im not paying that shite. They want to ticket people for 6 miles over the posted speed limit at a hefty fine, Put a real cop out there.

I provided information to help him make an informed decision. It's his call and he should decide what is best for him.

Does Gretna have scanners for unpaid tickets and do they utilize them as such? If the answer is no, this may help in his decision making process.

Do you have new information that Baton Rouge will soon change their stance on red light and speed camera tickets?
