So I waited for 30 days and paid the ticket($57 ). You can bet your sweet ass that I will NEVER, NEVER get on HWY 331 again. Normally don't spend much extra money while traveling, but nothing will be all that this highway will get..BTW the camera was at a point where you came around a curve, speed limit 55 to a school zone speed changed in about 100 feet.


I thought alabama passed a law that says a town cannot derive more than 10% of its operating revenue from tickets. I would be real curious to see how much of their revenue comes from tickets!
I bet it would really hurt your feelings to learn that private companies set those things up and keep the lion's share of the fine money collected. When you send your payment in notice where it goes to. Not the Municipality.


Lord, please help us get our nation straightened out.
