    I received a donut voucher for 117 kmh while overtaking a truck near Omarama three weeks ago. Now I know exactly how to pay that.

    Why not rock up with a couple boxes of donuts and see if they might waive the fine?

    Shows initiative, patience (imagine folding that many $1 bills), humour and responsibility (he paid the fine didn't he?)

    The payment might be novelty but running a red light in my opinion warrants the fine, now speeding on the open road is another matter.......

    Your post, Called double standards init ! For once forget the negative and smile with the rest of the world at a novel way of creating some humour. Your day may seem brighter for doing so.

    It's worth bearing in mind that in the US, there have been many cases where the city councils operating the red light cameras have been caught lowering the yellow-light period to maximise profits, so while this guy may have run a red light, it's entirely possible that his actions would have been completely legal if the yellow phase length actually obeyed their national standard.

    Not double standards, running a red light is inherently much more dangerious than collecting a tax for exceeding the speed limit in favourable conditions, ie open road, good conditions, light/no traffic, passing etc....

    I'm sure you'll agree
