More people say the city of Chicago is making them pay speed camera or red light camera tickets racked up by thieves who stole their car or plates.
In March, the I-Team investigated one man who was denied an appeal by the city despite his car being stolen. Now they have heard from more people in the same situation, and found the city of Chicago is denying more appeals on red light and speed camera tickets, even after drivers show proof that their license plates or cars were stolen.
After contesting the tickets with the City of Chicago, and showing evidence of the thefts, the city told all three to pay up. But it wasn't. The city added fines when she didn't pay and Geary now owes $800 for the speed camera tickets alone."It's sad, he has to pay the price for somebody else's actions," she said."Then started getting all of these notices in the mail of red light tickets. Seven in Chicago."
Virene's car was stolen from inside his Lockport garage. He then got a ticket for a red light camera 35 miles from his home in the city of Chicago. He contested with a letter from a Lockport police officer verifying the theft, but Virene lost. The Finance Department went on to say the other two drivers should be forgiven, but they have re-submit their documents to the Department of Administrative Hearings because they both contested their tickets after the required 21 day deadline.
The people who contacted the I-Team believe any documentation of theft should be enough, and Canada's son did supply the full, official police report.
