Too much Traffic Tickets from Calgary Police and Speed Cameras. I'm Fed up.

Calgary was used to be the best place to live and enjoy your life. But Calgary Police along with speed Cameras made your life difficult. Even you pay so much attention and obeys the all the rules of Traffic you get caught by the Camera and have to pay the hefty fines.

It could be done by the person ahead of you driving too slow or the slippery snow not cleaned by city crew crying always of low budget and clearing major roads first and then amber light goes red and then smile "You are on Red Light Camera".

Calgary police should cut the police force as earlier was proposed by Naheed Nenshi as there are two many officers hired from foreign country that are only doing traffic duties besides the speed cameras adding burden to Calgarian hard earned tax money.

Crime rate is very low in Calgary and watching police in each corner of the city doesn't make any sense.

I never have any ticket in my more than 22 years of driving but yesterday I was crossing intersection when the light was amber I reached in the middle of the intersection it goes red and the police was exactly behind me and pulled me over."Failing to stop red light at intersection 54(1). I requested them it was close and if he can pardon me. Officer replied me that don't bribe me. I told him its only a request but he gave me a ticket Close to $300.

Whenever I drive in the speed limits in Calgary I considered my self a stupid person as always person behind me drive bumper to bumper bullying me to drive faster even in construction zone. Its true no one follow Speed limits in Calgary.

I don't know if I can wait to go to the crown and request to pay less money and lesser demerits.Can I go to the Crown earlier date as mentioned on my ticket?

I'm really depressed and driving in Calgary is itself becoming a big stress at least for me.Don't know about you people and yes if I do mistake I have to pay fine and tickets which I will but do I have to go to the crown and can request that look I crossed in the amber light and it goes red! Does it will effect anything or should I pay right now or go the company to fight my ticket.Or Just admits my mistake and request for mercy as I have clean record.

Please help as this is my first ticket and my friends are very happy and they said they got 4-5 tickets in a year and welcome to their Demerits driving club.

I was in Edmonton for two days visit never saw a single Police Vehicle although there are cameras there too.
