You can believe me or not but ever since I got a speeding ticket in the RX-8 three years ago, I had vowed to myself that I would not speed more than 10 kph over. 10 kph to keep up with the flow of traffic.
But I got mailed a photo radar ticket showing that I was going 19 kph over.
After some thinking back to that day, I remembered that several vehicles to my right of me were going much faster than I was.
Basically I think the photo radar tagged someone beside me but because I was the "nearest", it took a picture of my vehicle.
Its $120 ticket.
I am thinking of fighting it and using the defense used in this article.

"The practise is if you have more than one vehicle in the photo frame, the Crown is not supposed to proceed, and they don't in most cases," said Young
There were a few vehicles in the photo-radar picture but in the next lane.
Anyone else fight a photo-radar ticket and have any advice?
Photo-radar doesn't result in demerits but can it increase your insurance rate?
