I believe I'll be getting a ticket in the mail soon. I live in In Florence, az and I was in Phoenix when this happened. Will they still need to serve me?

Well, first wait and see if you actually get the ticket. Where were you (more exact location than "Phoenix") when you think you were photographed?

I was on Thomas rd, near N 24th St. I'm sure I did, I was going 45 and way after noticed the speed limit was 35, unless it changes but I'm not familiar with that area.

You do have to be properly served, although as various posters here like to point out, some cities (Scottsdale?) have started to use "alternative service."

Having said that, I've never responded to any notice of a photo ticket I've received in the mail, and I've never heard another thing about any of them. They don't appear on my driving record or my insurance, nor any other place I've ever been able to find.

Your mileage may vary...

If I may ask, what is "alternate service?"

If you broke the law and receive a ticket you should pay it.

Alternative service allows service by simply leaving it at (or on) your door without actually handing it to someone of "suitable age and discretion' which is the normal standard for personal service. To my knowledge, the city of Phoenix does NOT use it.

I used to be in that area a lot, but I don't remember there being photo radar there. Did you see a portable van, were there signs, etc.?

What you decide to do is entirely up to you. There are plenty of threads on this subject here already for you to read.
