My brother Curt has this great record of getting speeding tickets in the mail from a hidden camera. We are very lucky in Wayne County not to have hidden cameras every 10 feet. In ALL of EUROPE... they have hidden cameras everywhere. They do not pay men to give people tickets.... they use machines! Well needless to say we have been very fortunate with only one ticket. UNTIL this past Tuesday when we got home from Venice. Sam went to work on Tuesday and about had a heart attack! The guy sitting beside Sam thought he was going to have to do CPR.
This is the Ticket
Translation: From LUKHello Gary,
We received a speeding ticket fine for you. You drove 41 km/h too fast !! In Germany you would have to pay € 160,- + suspended driver`s license for 1 month.
Since you are from the US we don`t know the exact procedure. But we assume that you have to pay about € 250,-
So, now we requested a photo of the speeding ticket. Furthermore we have to mention the German and US address, date and place of birth of the driver.
This is just to let you know the current status - I will keep you informed.
How my husband responded:
1st - WHAT NOT ME?
2nd - I was not in this area then... it must have been my wife
and 3rd - This is a picture of my car...
So after convincing LUK and the Police that his was not SAM or his wife! He was able to come home from work and tell me all about his day!!!! We exchanged our car for the LUK Van to pick up our VIP company and all of their luggage. That is why this was our car but NOT US! They found the man that was using our car. He lost his license for 4 weeks with a fine.
YES ... this was the excitment of our week!!!
