I am going to contest a Red Light CAMERA ticket I recently got in Aurora.

In the last few months Aurora has installed a bunch of these devices. There are at least 3 I know of in just a few mile stretch on New York St.

I got one for making a left run after the light had gone to red, supposedly.
The online video they send you to review is impossible to see what color the light is!...I was in a line of left-turners and simply couldn't see the light change by the time I was already in the intersection anyway. (was driving directly into the sun at like 5:15pm.)

anyway, I am going to their "administrative hearing' this week. Has anyone ever fought one of these?....the ticket is $100 and doubles right away if you don't pay it!

Forget it, you won't win. They have you on video crossing the white line after the light was red, stating you couldn't see it isn't the city's fault and they will tell you that.
