Walking a lot is the best way to get to know the city.

The whole logic of having a school zone speed limits because there's a lot of kids so Yeah if there's less kids there's less risk of them running out in the street .

They would probably mask the plate to the camera/ flash, putting a clear lacquer would mute the reflection of the paint on the plate. Put a flashlight on a license plate in the dark, you will notice it's reflective paint glows and makes it easy to make out. I say my friend's ticket with the plate and it glowed. Thus glow is what might trick the camera.

So because there’s only a “few” of them you can speed by them when it’s even darker out? Nice attitude. Also the school near us 80% of the kids are there after school anyway.

risk/reward for the driver prob makes sense. The risk/reward for the pedestrian you're endangering by going over speed limit prob disagrees.

TIL
> Pernil is a slow-roasted marinated pork leg or pork shoulder. In Latin American countries the dish is commonly shared during Christmas. It is a typically accompanied by arroz. The pork shoulder is used as a whole piece, with skin and bone.

Maybe see if Kismet Improv is hiring - great social community and they need bartenders and ticket takers on weekend nights

There's a lot fewer of them and other places kids congregate after school don't have reduced speeds

Have you tried security work? There are ample bars and clubs downtown. I think one of the companies is called Lockdown.

I've never paid one. Reading the ticket carefully its just worded that you should pay. I myself never signed a contract with any company and I'm not being legally bound to a ticket some company collects on and gives a percentage to the city hosting said cameras.

Harris Ave is free, right behind the mall, and spots are available in the early am.

Kids are at after care and sports until 530 so people and kids are still leaving the building until close to 6 hence the timing.

This. Ffs people it’s a school zone and you are actually speeding if the camera goes off. By quite a margin.

Did it flash on you and not the next person? It comes in the email sometimes up to a month later.

In the Netherlands, they covered the traffic cameras with old tires when they first installed them. They then doused the tires in gasoline, and lit on fire.

There's nothing in the constitution that says we can't be surveiled by the government
I hate surveillance and I hate the government but I also hate that you do 10+ mph over the speed limit in a school zone.
There's no reason a single parent can't maintain a safe speed in a school zone

FREEPLAY. Flat cover, play as much as you want. Mix of both classic games and new games. Surprised I didn’t see it already in the comments!
