2 Cars in the photo

**Vvvtec** · 19-10-2010 11:47 PM

I've heard somewhere that if there are two (or more) cars in the photo of a speeding ticket, you can't be fined? Is this true?

I just got my first ticket in the mail, and there is a Commodore in the lane on my left, and we are exactly side by side in the photo.

Thanks

From what I've heard, there's a laser that points to the speeding car when the picture is taken.. But I'm not 100% sure.

suposably the speeding cameras can catch more then one person speeding now...... technology although awesome in most ways...... can also be a real bitch..

ive actually heard of quite a few people contesting this.
it just depends on how confident you are that you werent speeding.
a close friend of mine contested it and got the fine dropped because there was another car in the photo.
but his argument that he was on a road that you cant speed on and from where he pulled out from on the road he wouldnt have reached the speed they alleged rah rah...
your chances of getting it dropped also depend on your driving history.
but gl mate!

Naughty naughty.

Go to the ACA website and re-watch some of their speeding fine contested videos.

That may give you an idea of how to approach this.

Thanks for the input guys. It does seem like a bit of a longshot, but I'm going to look into it abit more, and I'll be writing a letter to see what their respone is.
