Thats funny. I've heard of another story where a man was sent a ticket and a picture of his car as it passed under an overpass speeding. He thought it would be wise to send a scanned picture of the money for his fine as he was irritated. A few weeks later he recieved a scanned picture of a pair of handcuffs and decided it would be wise to pay the ticket. Funny story but I can't remember where it happened.

lol, that was a good one too. Maybe a little too unprofessional though to believe that the cops would actually respond like that.

Wow... I was hoping the police department would own him by saying something like "Your license has been suspended." hahah

Still, that is great. I might try that sometime.

This reminded of a case in Rio last year, when a woman got a ticket in the mail for driving without a helmet. The ticket had the correct license plate of her VW. She never rode a bike in her life, and still she had to pay.
