Sure, speeding tickets are a cash grab. But they are a cash grab because you were too stupid to obey the speed limit. That was your decision, so suck it up and take the fine like a man.

I must be too stupid to see a sign over a puny 500 metre stretch with multiple cars parked in front when it's dark out.
I'll man up and pay my ticket when CPS responds to the multiple calls myself and my neighbors in Mount Royal put in about blatant drugs deals blocks away from our property and two schools (which happened on a nightly basis with no threat of response from the police). My wife was walking to work in the morning a couple of months ago while it was still dark, some guy followed her down a side street, she noticed and turned around to go back to the main street and the guy bumped right into her and told her she " was very lucky that she made that choice ". We called the police and we were told there was nothing they could do. And get this...... If it happens again to call them back!
Maybe they should put some resources into that instead of waiting behind bushes at ten o'clock at night trying to stop the evil tax paying citizens of going 41 KM in a dark area at 10 pm at night with cars parked on both sides of the street blocking your ability to see a sign in the dark.
