On or about Feb. 19, I received a “hand” carried photo radar ticket from Star Valley. According to the ticket, I was traveling “approximately” 56 in a 45 mph zone. An area that has poor signage.

I sent a certified check on Feb. 26 via certified mail. I wasn’t going to argue the issue since the date of the violation was Dec. 21. Now, on March 10, I received a blue card stating I must pay an additional $32 or have my license suspended. This is outrageous. I paid the listed amount on the ticket I received ($197). Star Valley is more of a Scam Valley.

A word to the local business owners — I won’t be stopping in Star Valley for gas or food anymore and will be notifying everyone else to do the same.

To local leaders — photo radar might soon be gone because of misuse like yours.
