Red Light Photo Ticket, Arizona


Arizona

received a red light photo ticket in the mail. I have not had any traffic tickets here in arizona, or any within the last 7 years and no accidents either. The photo is a bit blurry, but I am just wondering what I can do to reduce this down to as close to nothing as I can. I was told to ignore it, then I was told that they could suspend your license. HELP!

Could be a bluff notice that you can ignore


Attorney Kayler's advice (in the linked article) is excellent BUT leaves out one big detail. Before you do anything about the document you received, check it over carefully. If the full address of the court - including street and city - isn't there, it could be a bluff notice that the police have sent you (without filing it at court) in an attempt to fake you into confirming the identity of the driver. Usually, these bluff notices will also say "This is not a summons...." If it is a bluff notice, you can ignore it - they will not even try to serve it on you, like they will with a real ticket.

Bluff notices are just in two states. THe other is California, where the idea of bluff notices originated. Here they are called snitch tickets.

Good luck,

Pug
