Why the assh*le response? You think $361 is a reasonable fee for a red light?

I think it's quite high.
High enough you'll probably think about it for some time to come.
It's also much lower than the total cost of the accident that could have resulted from you running the red light.
I've run red lights before, and I've gotten a ticket for it once. It was a nominal fine, and it made no dent in my driving habits; at that point, why even bother with a ticket? The fines should be high enough that they discourage the behaviour - much like parking tickets. If they were $3, and you didn't get towed, most people would park wherever they pleased.
