Traffic camera anyone?

I was driving when I saw the flash of a traffic camera. I figured that my

picture had been taken for exceeding the limit even though I knew that I

was not speeding.

Just to be sure, I went around the block and passed the same spot, driving

even more slowly, but again the camera flashed .

I tried a third and fourth time with the same result.

Now I began to think

that this was quite funny, so I drove even slower as I passed the area

once more, but the traffic camera flashed for the fifth time with the same

results and I was now laughing as the camera flashed while I rolled past

at a snail's pace.

Two weeks later, I got five tickets in the mail for driving without a seat

belt .

You can't fix stupid !

    At the very least, you can get 4 of those thrown out.

    You could also argue that you had the seat belt on, but the shoulder strap behind you and the camera couldn't have proven otherwise. Of course, you had better be actually doing this, otherwise you would be lying under oath! (much worse than a traffic ticket)

    This story sounds like the bank robber who thought it was so easy to unlock the bank vault only to find out that it locked him in once he was inside.
