[DeTomaso] Speed Camera Tickets Not Valid?

[Charles McCall]

In Spain, speeding tickets are mailed via registered mail. Your signature is
proof of having received the ticket. 

Cough. Or so I'm told. 

Perhaps they send tickets via registered mail?

(at least they let you plead guilty and pay via internet!!)

Asunto: [DeTomaso] Speed Camera Tickets Not Valid?

I just read an article about the Arizona speed camera system.

Seems with those mailed notices, you have not legally been served with  
the violation - as they have no way to prove you received the notice.

Remember how the cop says "sign here" whenever you get ticketed? And  
they say it is not an admission of guilt, just an admission you have  
received the ticket?

Well, in Arizona, unless you are personally served within 90 days of  
the photo camera violation, the notice expires.

So MANY Arizonians just ignore the mailed notices and wait out the 90  
days. With all government budget strained, there is no money to have  
process servers driving all over towns hand delivering speeding  
notices, so that photo camera 'violation' just goes away as long as  
you ignore it.

Anyone know the legality of such tickets here in California, or other  
states?
