bullshite my arse... first citation was 10/14. It was "issued" 0n 11/05. I left NOLA on 11/10 and received the ticket, at home, sometime after that. Second was 10/21, a week late, issued on 11/15. Rental car did assess me a fee but did not state where, when or why. Did not receive the actual citations until returning home. Tell me where the bullshite is?

NEW OLEANS PHOTO SPEEDING TICKETS

What is with these speed cameras in NOLA? I wok for a government agency and came to New Orleans to help folks recover from Hurricane Ida. Helped hundreds, any way. Part of my job is to drive and meet people to try and get them housing o to get their homes repaired. Naturally, the more people I meet in a day the more people I help to recover from the disaster.

Spent over two months there working in Treme, the lower 9th, the Rosenwald Center on S. Broad and several other locations including Westwego and St Bernard Paish. So, as you can see, I moved around quite a bit. helping people.

I return home after 2 plus months and I stat to get speeding tickets in the mail. The first on was for $75 bucks for going 5MPH over the limit. Hell, even the cops will give you that or a bit more. Then I got another one and I have to admit, I was speeding (15 over). The third and fourth were quite interesting. They photo's were taken ONE MINUTE apart and in the first one I was only going FOUR mph over the limit.

So, here I sit with well over $500 in NOLA speeding cam tickets and everyone is telling me not to pay because it a third party agency doing the billing. I'm not a resident although NOLA is a second home to me and the vehicles I was operating were rental cars so my question......

PAY OR NOT TO PAY... that is the question!
