No - I was vague on the drive intentionaly and will leave it at that. I do not suspect that the car was stolen or that the picture was taken at a time when we were not renting it. I only know it wasn't my wife driving it. I'd rather not incriminate in any way who ever was driving it.

I wonder if I can request a proper photo showing what I want to see - the drive and the license plate in the same frame and readable.

It irks me a bit because the fine is rather stiff and the violation is within a second of the light turning red. Regardless of that a violation is a violation I suppose and if I'm guilty I'm guilty and I don't have a real problem with that. I'm just not sure I am - all I need is for them to prove it beyond a reasonable doubt.

We'll probably just pay unfortunately - we don't have time for this right now. She's due with our first on 12/2 and this is really the least of our concerns. She was concerned about giving it to me because she thought that with some of the other set backs I've had in the last two weeks (career wise - nothing major though) that I would be pissed. I think she was a bit surprised that when she handed it too me I read it and was pretty easy going about it. A citation in general doesn't make me too mad but those stupid ones I've gotten have really irked the heck out of me.

I got one a year or so ago for "no head in parking" what kind of crap is that...

And then on my way our of Florida (moving to CA) I got a speeding ticket (68 in a 65 zone) that at the time I couldn't do traffic school for unless I was in Florida. So I ended up with a point on my license for it. THAT one pissed me off. But this one - the fine is troublesome but who ever is at fault can do traffic school to take care of the point and then it's gone.
