Tickets for parking, seatbelts and speeding are all fundrasing projects. If they really cared about saftey, they would fix some of these crazy six way intersections and not set stoplights to a one-second yellow with the intent on forcing people to run the lights just so they can ticket them.
The reason why they do it is because so many people just hahahahaha out the check because that is easier. The few people that do take the citations to court lose and since there arent that many of them, they make profit on it.
However, if everybody took thier citations to court, the system would be flooded with cases and they would lose money on the endeavor. At that point it would stop.
I got a speeding ticket a couple of months ago. I am taking it to court and I am making sure that the state spends more money prosecuting the ticket than they will make by finding me guilty and making me pay court costs. The court just ordered the State to produce all kinds of hahahahahahahahaation and other crap. By the time they search through all of thier records, make copies and mail them to me, they will have spent thousands of dollars to enforce a $135 fine.
Sure, I likely will not win but at least they wont make any money, either. But who is the real loser in this one? Me for paying them or them for spending thousands of dollars in man hours, paper, postage and court costs to enforce a fine worth $135.
