--Some three weeks ago I got a ticket for taking a right turn at a stop --light with a "no turn on red" sign. I don't deny that I made the turn on --right, but I believe that, given my income of below $10,000 per year, the --$104 is excessive. I thought my $100 ticket for rolling through a stop sign on my $25 bicycle was excessive, but the judge didn't. At that rate, car drivers should pay 4 times the value of their vehicle for running a stop sign.
