Could be worse. Western Europe is full of average speed cameras, speed cameras and cops hiding behind all sorts of constructions where all they do is take a photo and send the registrar of the car the ticket with no way of facing your accuser. All you can do is pay the ticket. It's you vs the machine. Didn't drive the car and don't know who did? Tough luck.
- srmarm 4y agoI'm sure in most countries you can choose to take the fine or fight it in court. How often do you not know whose driving your car?
- WirelessGigabit 4y agoYou can take it to court and then what? The judge just slams you with the photo (for which you need to pay if you want it as part of your defense). Speeding tickets in Belgium are part of the government budget. That on its own should make you think about why they make it so hard to defend yourself. And a picture of a license plate proves just that. The plate was there. I shouldn't have to keep record who drove my car. Especially not 4 weeks ago when the letter gets to my mailbox. Nor should I be required to rat out others.
