Paid my "photo-cop" ticket
#31
I am not debating you, but you are applying the practices of businesses on this situation. Courts and businesses are two different animals. My bank does not require all of that information anymore.
I think the story is funny, but in reality they will just put them in a change sorter. However, if the ticket clearly states, "do not send cash," then they could deny the pennies.
I would say that life is a lot more fun if you do not worry so much.

But if they don't accept unrolled pennies as payment, (you can be required to roll all coin and put your name and phone number on each roll) doesn't a warrant for dad's arrest go out? If your dad was complaining about a ticket for something that the camera shows he did, I can imagine what he'll say to you when he's unexpectedly arrested. No way I would put my dad in that position.
I once watched an episode of 'Parking Wars' where two guys went in and tried to pay in all pennies, with one of them filming because they thought it would be funny. Long story short, two police officers were called in and the end result, the business did not have to accept the unrolled pennies as payment, so the joke ended up on the impounded vehicle owner.

Not here in Ohio.... They run the plate and send the ticket to the registered owner. If someone else was driving the vehicle it is up to the owner to collect the fines from them. They are the equivalent to a parking violation. Tickets issued there are without a driver and the responsibility of the owner.

I'd take it to court if they didn't have a clear shot of my ugly mug accompanying the ticket.
It's not my responsibility to do the police work for them, if they wish to prove I was the one operating the vehicle they are more than welcome to try, otherwise f*ck'm.

So let me get this strait. The Op and his dad ran an intersection when the light turned red and the second rider (dad) got caught and bitches about the ticket. Why did he run the red light in the first place? For safety reason, I would've stopped and saved me a ticket and perhaps a bad accident. The front rider just have to check his mirrors once in a while to see that I'm not following anymore and wait till I catch-up to him.

[QUOTE=Texas Fat Boy;7106374]Nice parenting skills dude, teaching your kids to disrespect authority. At least you taught them they need to pay a fine when accrued.

Well said, Sir. I'm glad somebody finally pointed that out.
Sounds like that may have been passing down through the generations in this guy's family.

The OP should send dad a 'Get Out of Jail Free' card; he might need one.
