Gatso Speed cameras avoiding the fine
Hello .
I recently received a Notice of intended prosecution about speeding (43 Mph exceeding 30 on restricted road) caught on a GATSO camera the time was 01:21 and no cars where in the road at all I was new in this area and I didn't pay attention to the camera warning signs . I am asked to provide information about the driver (which it was me) . However I thought to provide information about a friend in Spain and give his address saying for example that he was visting.( I am from Spain originally) .My friend said that he doesn't mind and he will never pay any fines . But is this possible??or am I going to be questioned by letting him drive my car?my friend has insurance from spain and driving license. Are they going to be any consequences on me? The flash of the camera came from theback but does anyone knows if there are pictures showing the face? Any advices? Has anyone done this before? If I decide to pay the ticket how much will be the charge and when is the time limit that I have to pay it? Thanks a lot Ivan |

> wrote in message > > I recently received a Notice of intended prosecution about speeding (43 Summary: You're asking advice / permission from strangers in a newsgroup as to whether or not you should enter into a conspiracy to commit fraud, and then to commit the fraud. And you say there was no one else on the road? No MFFYs or LLBs to blame it on? Pay the damned fine. You earned it. Next time you see a sign warning of a camera, perhaps you'll take note. Merry Christmas! |

It was a stupid manoeuvre. Sure, but it should be the prosecutor's job to prove you were driving, not yours to prove you were not. Ulf |

Traffic laws, especially those that provide for expiation, often to permit administrative streamlining because the number of offenders is close to that of the total population, have the presumption of guilt based on dubious, prima facie evidence. -- /"\ Bernd Felsche - Innovative Reckoning, Perth, Western Australia \ / ASCII ribbon campaign | German words of the year 2005: X against HTML mail | Bundeskanzlerin Tsunami Gammelfleisch / \ and postings | Sadly, in that order. |
