Question about photo DPS suvs in AZ

[Freebird]

Do they ticket out of state plated vehicles or just AZ plated vehicles? What about a Company truck, registered to a company in another state? Trucking company is located in Arkansas, but the plate is registered in Illinois.

I don't have to live in AZ and/or work for the AZ Public Safety Dept, the one with the Photo Radar vans, to know that ANYBODY with a VISIBLE license plate will be photographed and then sent out tickets by mail or whatever (photo radar has been baned in Ontario since 1995 so I don't have direct experience with such system), I guess all or most of the states have reciprocal agreements for such traffic offences and/or unpaid fines, something like this one btwn Ontario and the rest of Canada or USA:

Reciprocal Agreements: Between Canadian Provinces/Territories and U.S. States

Canada:

Alberta, British Columbia, Manitoba, New Brunswick, Newfoundland and Labrador, Nova Scotia, Prince Edward Island, Quebec and Saskatchewan.

United States of America:

Alabama, Arizona, Arkansas, Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, Idaho, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maryland, Michigan, Minnesota, Mississippi, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, North Carolina, North Dakota, Ohio, Oklahoma, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, Virginia, Washington, West Virgina, Wisconsin, Wyoming and District of Columbia.


And for that case with a trucking company located in one state but registered in another, I guess that they will start with the plate, see what they get in return and then go after the HQ, something like this, personally I don't see why they will avoid ticketing out-of-state 4-wheelers or trucks with different plates!

Might be hard to go after a company driver if he no longer works for the company by the time the company receives a ticket. Company would have to eat the ticket probably at the time of renewing the plates is what I am thinking.

That's true Steve, too complicated and IMHO not worth to spend time on this type of case, but such case is pretty rare, at least 99% of cases are pretty easy ones, 4-wheelers driving their own cars regardless what state they are from or trucks with drivers that still work for the company its plates got snapped by the photo camera... so, in a nutshell, that particular case you are talking about, extremely slim chances, almost nil, the driver will ever receive that ticket in mail or his/her state DOT ever be informed of the out-of-state offence!

Take care Steve!

Thats what I am thinking also. Be safe RW.

Garmin GPS, I have the 350, the one you see it in my videos, allows you to input any Red Light Camera and/or Photo (called Speed) Camera into the GPS and anytime you drive by that GPS location it will warn you with a continuous beep and flashing in red of the upper portion of the screen, I have 125 RLCs in my GPS, no Photo Radar as we don't have such radar in Ontario, this is one of the videos where my Garmin warns me of a RLC:

at 0:32 of the video you will hear the Garmin warning (beeping) for the near RLC.

I gots me one of these:

And one of these

For the scameras here in AZ. Only complaint is that for trapster the mobile vans have such a short timeout that they expire and are still there. A quick check of the recent traps section gives me the last 24 hours of van sightings and a good knowledge of where to haul a$$ and where to slow down for a bit.

They ticket everyone, however you are not required to do a damn thing if they mail you a letter. Arizona law requires PERSONAL service, just throw the letter away.

The truck is a company truck and I no longer work for them so I doubt if anything will come of it. Im sure you can put the pieces together as to why I had a lapse in attention passing the SUV.
