Yeah, there are speed cameras in Gretna operated by Gretna PD. Those might be treated differently than the private outsourced tickets.

I think maybe to put them in school zones

I think I heard something about this. I'm okay with that. Glad all of the others were taken down though.

ETA: as of the end of February red light cameras are gone, but they are considering putting traffic cameras in "some" school zones. I'm assuming/hoping that this means they'll only be active during school zone times.

Then my license was up for renewal. Nothing flagged in the system. If I would have had legit unpaid tickets they wouldn't have allowed me to renew.


Go park on the street in NOLA and see how long before you get a boot. They don't frick around down here.

I remember right when I moved to new orleans I got about 5 of them the first week and didn't even know until weeks later when they started showing up one by one in the mail. Bastards.

I've read the the ones here in Baker are treated the same as red light tickets. Dunno.... anyone have any insight on this? Plenty of people drive through Baker on their way to and from Zachary.

Baker ones treated just like EBR. They have no power of any real enforcement besides just threatening letters.

I've thrown away more than ten from Baker over the years. Appeared on my credit report once. Disputed it and it was removed.

Unless a commissioned police officer actually witnesses the violation, stops the car, and issues the driver a citation right there in person it's a bullshite "civil violation" that you have no legal obligation to pay. Doesn't matter if a police department "reviews" it or puts their logo on the equipment.

Good news! Pretty pathetic source of "attempted" revenue generation. Bakers tax base has gone to shite, so they rely on fining people commuting to and from Zachary.

I know for a fact that the one at Sherwood and Coursey is not correctly calibrated. It cites you for taking a legal right turn on red.

Do they go on your credit report?


No, the credit companies got time of wasting resources to remove the citation when it was disputed.

They finally removed all the ones in Laffy.... even the speed wagons.

Millions of $dollars$ in tickets went unpaid. I say good for the commy bastards!
