Silly? I'd call it reckless and dangerous if you're not stopping at a stop sign.. not "silly".

I've never had one. I've been driving for 15 years. I never drive the speed limit and go through red lights every day(I work in downtown Detroit and that's just what we do- the red lights part).

I also always drive atleast 10 over the speed limit. I am in downtown chicago. Never got a speeding ticket. I don't go through the red light though. we have camera here almost every other traffic light.

All mine have been for speeding...about a dozen tickets over my 27 years of driving.
Actually...the last one I got was really for speeding, but the cop let me off with a ticket for an illegible license (it had faded), which was a fix-it ticket so no points or cost (other than $10 for a replacement license).

lol it wasn't reckless driving. It was 5 am in the morning, and the street was lonely. It was just that I couldn't recognize the police car coming before not stopping at the stop sign.

I'm guessing he did a 'rolling stop', and didn't just blow through it.

See, I would have just said 'I rolled through a stop sign". I just inferred that he straight up ran it. Dontknow

so basically you are just a hot head who deserves the tickets...and it appears that you would not obey red lights if it weren't for the cameras.
