Red Light Cameras Continue to Ticket Innocent Drivers

PHILADELPHIA, Pa. – A red light camera ticket given in error to a driver in Philadelphia is just one of many such reports all around the country, and motorists are worried that they will be the next victim of a system that does not work.

A blurry red light camera photo showing a license plate with numbers that cannot be read was sent to a Coventryville man as evidence that he went through a traffic light. The ticket arrived by mail with a photo that did not match the man's car. It wasn't even the same color, according to a report in the Philadelphia Inquirer.

The ticket was one of many that have been sent out in error all around the country by a system that is less than perfect and has motorists scrambling to find ways to protect themselves from becoming the next victim.

"Drivers are tired of getting tickets they do not deserve. The cost in time and money to defend themselves is excessive, so they would rather use PhotoBlocker (tm) spray to save money by preventing the unjust tickets. We want our roads to be safe, and we do not encourage anyone to break the law. But we know how frustrating it is to get a ticket you do not deserve," explained Joe Scott of PhotoBlocker.com.

PhotoBlocker (tm) is a simple aerosol spray that when applied to a license plate does not in any way alter the appearance of the plate to the naked eye, but the flash picture from a red-light camera or speed camera makes the number on the plate unreadable.

The incident that happened in Philadelphia is not an isolated one. Similar reports have appeared in the news around the country.

A woman in Davenport, Iowa received a similar ticket in error and tried to appeal her red light ticket twice and was turned away both times. She gave up work and followed instructions on the ticket for making an appeal, but was sent home in frustration.

Millions of people each year receive tickets from red light and speed cameras, and many complain that those tickets were sent in error. Most believe that the process of defending themselves is so challenging and expensive that it is easier to just pay the fine and move on with life.

How many innocent drivers are getting tickets in error and end up just paying the fine to avoid the hassle with fighting the system? There is no way to know, but the man who received the faulty ticket in Philadelphia sums it up this way:

"If they can do this to me, what about the poor little old lady that doesn't have the ability to do all this?" he was quoted as saying in the report.

More and more worried drivers are turning to a very inexpensive, simple method to prevent most red light and speed cameras. PhotoBlocker (tm) is considered to be a form of self-defense against the imperfect red light and speed cameras.

As more and more incidents like these are reported in the media, the demand for cans of PhotoBlocker (tm) spray continues to rise. The company reports sales of over 350,000 cans protecting over 1 million vehicles in 23 countries on six continents. The product is available from many local distributors, retail outlets, and over the Internet at http://www.PhotoBlocker.com.

"We get calls, e-mails and letters from many professionals who are very happy with the effectiveness of PhotoBlocker spray. Journalists, doctors, lawyers, firefighters, teachers, and judges themselves have resorted to using PhotoBlocker spray to avoid entrapment," said Scott.
