Work Zone Violation (How’d You Beat Your Ticket?)

I received a Phoenix traffic-ticket for traveling too fast in a Work Zone. However, the ticket was issued to me at 615pm – and there were no more workers in the area. (I pointed this out to the cop, but he wasn’t interested in what I had to say.) I figured I’d probably just get screwed by the judge, as well. Fortunately, the judge was rational, and agreed that if there are no workers in the area, then there is no risk – and no violation. So, if anyone gets one of these tickets in Phoenix (or anywhere for that matter), always remember that if there are no workers present, there’s no violation!
