I got a photo ticket in the mail last June for a red light violation in Spruce Grove. I slowed down to make a right from 16a going through town on to Century Road heading South. It stated that I had crossed the stop line 2/100ths of a second after the light turned red.
The ticket was for $400. I obviously wasn't too happy about it. I checked into the whole, "meet the prosecutor and get it tossed or reduced" avenue but was told that they no longer allowed this. I mailed in a not guilty plea and a court date was set for March 24th/2023. I eventually decided it wasn't worth my time and elected to just pay the fine and move on. Last week I received a cheque for $405 from the Solicitor General. The stub said the ticket was "quashed". No reason given. Not sure what happened there but I'll take it.
