Boo. Stupid no talking on your cell phone while driving laws. Judge was kinda an asshole to me too, but really nice to the three DWI cases before me.

I think I can talk on my cell phone while driving and still be a better driver than most people...

I don't feel sorry for you. Driving while using one hand to talk on the phone is unnecessary and dangerous. Get a hands free device.

It's a law to protect the safety of others. I'm not saying you deserved it. You may still be a perfect driver while on the phone, but not everyone is and the cops and people need to look out for that. About the the judge being an asshole... maybe he was in a bad mood. Ahh I dunno.

oh it's definitely illegal in california now, but the fine is more like 25$ (something like that, too low for anyone to give a fuck) and everyone still does it

It's the same way with the automatic camera ticketing devices they have installed all around Phoenix. Since no officer actually witnessed the violation, the tickets HAVE to be reversed if you take them to court. But the letter they send with the ticket is so threatening that 95% of the people just send the money anyway.
I think it's illegal as hell, and technically it is.

But at least there is some physical proof of the offense with the camera. I bet a lot of states don't even let you fight it

How is a picture physical proof? How is there physical proof for any speeding offense?

Uhhh because the camera has YOUR license plate and it only takes the photo when a car is speeding.
The only way the camera would be wrong is if the technology wasn't working right or if someone ELSE had the EXACT same license plate as you with the EXACT same make/model of car. I doubt a judge would find either one of those very likely. A lot of speeding cameras will not only take the photo of your car and license plate number but ALSO a picture of *YOU* yourself in the driver's seat to prove it was actually you. A buddy of mine had this happen to him.

There is LAZER technology in speeding cameras, the same the cops have with the speed detectors.... They shoot your car with a couple really quick lazers and determine the distance you went between time1 and time 2... these usually being less than a fraction of a second of each other. This actually calculates an average speed for the distance travelled.
Again, you'd have to convince the judge that the technology isn't calculating speed correctly or that it isn't taking the photo of the correct vehicle, which isn't likely. You'd need a hardcore lawyer threatening a class action to to get this kind of ticket to be overturned.
