Congrats and welcome to the US. Duluth is actually just another city in the state of Georgia. More like a suburb of Atlanta proper.

Besides the picture with time/date of offense they mail to you, they also include the url of video online that shows exactly what happened. You can't dispute it. Picture/Video no dey lie. And if you do not pay the fine by the time specified, the fine doubles. LOL!

See as everybody dey obey traffic. If you misbehave (or run red light), cameras would take a photo of your vehicle, your plate number and mail it to your house along with your ticket. grin grin


If i can find the one they sent to my mum, I'd snap and upload it. On two occassions, she had to pay $200 each.

that's $400 just for disobeying traffic. How much is that in naira again?
please don't mention it.. I had to comment when I saw this.. 400grand wasted just like that. if I was her, I ain't paying that..

So, we were making moi moi and akara some minutes ago. And the blender got burnt. I was sent to go get a new one from a shop nearby, and get some stuff as well.

The weather is 1° F.
