Ever got one of these?

Camera got me "evading the toll" I was actually carpooling in a lane for carpoolers but still got a ticket. I will be fighting this one. The way they sent this to me reminds me of an old wild wild west wanted poster.
Wanted.. one wingless subaru. (i blurred the image to hide personal info) but that is the rear end of my car smiling for a picture That picture costed me 36 bucks.Name:  IMG_0069.jpg

Ha ha my mom got one and you can totally see that it was Pri-*** with a similar plate to hers and we fought it and they never sent us anything further, plus we have all our cars on Fastrak so wdf? Just goes to show thy make mistakes all the time, when I get my new car I am going to run the dealer plates as long as I can and use my fake box for fastrak

How can they even make out your plate with that? Also don't they have those license plate covers that overexpose the picture when the camera gets you.

i think the ticket means you didnt pay for the toll fee not for carpooling.. carpooling tickets cost WAY MORE then just 36 dollars.

On certian bridges if your carpool is big enough you don't have to pay toll at certian times. I think that is why he is trying to fight it.

3 people is the minimum for the bridges but if you have a 2 seater 2 is the minimum/maximum

i got one a while back in the fastrak lane. i have a fastrak but when i went through, i noticed it didn't beep. i got the ticket in the mail. i was going to contest it, but a few days later i checked my account and they just debited the money for the toll and not the ticket. i guess they double checked it themselves.

Weird, usually there are more pictures from the front through the windshield, showing no one else in the car.
