RED LIGHT CAMERA TICKETS AVOIDED

Last year, officials in Arizona installed dozens of photo-enforcement traffic cameras around the state as part of a project aimed at getting speeders to slow down.

In that time, a guy from Phoenix named Dave Vontesmar has accumulated 37 speeding tickets to the tune of more than $6,500 in fines. But Dave says he doesn't have to pay. Why?

Because in order to make him pay, state officials have to prove that Dave was the person driving his car when the photo-ticket was issued.

The problem is that in all 37 of the photos, Dave . . . or someone else . . . is wearing a MONKEY MASK, which makes it impossible to ID the driver. (!!!)

Dave says, quote, "They're required by law to ID the driver of the vehicle. If they can't identify the driver by the picture, what are they doing to identify the driver?

"Not one of them there is a picture where you can identify the driver of the car . . . I sent back all the [tickets] I got with a copy of my driver's license and said, 'It's not me. I'm not paying.'"

It's unclear whether Dave will be forced to pay the speeding fines. Overall, the photo-enforcement program has helped the state earn about $20 MILLION.
