When did we start having speeding cameras in this state? [View all]

I thought those were unconstitutional because we're supposed to be "confronted with our accuser", but I may be behind the times. I got a ticket in the mail this morning for 26 in a 20 mph school zone on NE 8th in Bellevue! It says it won't go on my record as it's processed as a parking ticket, but I'm still bloody annoyed.

BTW, avoid that road -- the whole damn thing is a speed trap!
