I agree with this. I have received 2 citations for running a red light. The only proof they have is that my vehicle ran a red light on a particular date and time. There is no proof that I was the driver at that date and time. I am under no obligation to provide that evidence for them or to certify under penalty of perjury that it was not me, the burden is on them to prove that it was me. I have ignored these 2 letters for almost 3 years without penalty - hasn't even shown up on my credit report.

Same here. Got three within a week in Baton Rouge. I was just moving here and it took them over a month before they arrived at my address in Georgia. Took them and threw them in the trash. Received 2nd and 3rd notices. Threw them in the trash. Got a letter saying i was going to be sent to collections. Threw it in the trash. That was over 2 years ago. Was told by a lawyer that if it ever hit my credit, file a dispute claim against them and they have to take it off. Have never heard a thing about it again. Guess they got the picture after the third or fourth time it wasnt going to happen.

I believe there was a study done in Louisiana where over 35 to 40 percent of these tickets go unpaid.
