Got a red light ticket in Baker, does that need to be paid?

Was it from a machine or cop?

Don't pay it, you have grounds to file suit if they do anything offhand

Thanks Kyle, I haven’t paid it and they sent me another letter doubling the bill. They can have fun trying to collect that bs. Trading in that car anyway in a couple weeks.

I got one there awhile back.The prick cop was sitting right at the sign where the speed drops.I would have had to slam on my brakes to get down to the reduced speed.Same thing happened to my wife in Lecompte recently.
Tickets are apparently the main source of revenue for these shirthole towns.

Let’s just say I use to drive a small white pickup where the a/c was never installed.

Call them and ask for it to be dropped to non-moving. Pay it and it won’t go on your record. Best possible outcome.

Don’t go through there anymore.

That cop is there all day everyday. You should’ve known that but you may want to refer to the radar detector thread from yesterday. That cop is picked up by my V1 from at least 1 mile out.

My great uncle was from Dodson. Farm boy got drafted and learned how to fly a bomber and was a POW/presumed dead. Still have the article from when he was released and returned home.

love the police and fail to see that they are nothing more than tax collectors

Sorry the thieves got you, always make sure you’re under the limit going through any of these shithole towns



Yes you are right, the best answer is to have no police at all. There’s no reason for any traffic rules certainly, 4 way stops are just fine without signs and lights.
