I received a ticket through mail from DC police. They cited speeding violence. It said the area was Radar monitored and the speed limit was 25 mph. My speed was sensed by radar as 35 mph and it got its cameras turned on my car. Thats how they say they captured the picture of my car. Sounds cool ... but its surprising that in a multi-lane road like that the speed limit is 25 mph. So, folks be careful when driving downtown especially at night!
