I just read on Facebook about a woman's experience with traffic cams. Kingsport has several along a 6 lane thoroughfare that is a very busy retail district, but is also US Route 11 and carries a lot of through traffic. The story cracked me up.
(quote) I was driving when I saw the flash of a traffic camera. I figured that my picture had been taken for exceeding the limit even though I knew that I was not speeding. Just to be sure, I went around the block and passed the same spot, driving even more slowly, but again the camera flashed. Now I began to think that this was quite funny, so I drove even slower as
I passed the area once more, but the traffic camera again flashed. I tried a fourth and fifth time with the same results and was now laughing as the camera flashed while I rolled past at a snail's pace.
Two weeks later, I got five tickets in the mail for driving without a seat belt.
You know, you just can't fix stupid! LOL🤦♀️
