Livestation can be run on any type of operating system, as well as using RTU or WAN networking. The major benefits of Livestation are its capability to manage and coordinate distribution across multiple locations, multiple devices and different servers, as well as its low cost and low maintenance cost. Livestation uses a system called CIFS for synchronization of feeds, and this technology is suitable for all kinds of broadcast environments. The service has been originally meant for academic research work in the fields of wireless networking and security, but has rapidly changed into a highly usable service for commercial use. It was initially developed by Skinkers Ltd., and is now a small business called Livestation Ltd., with its headquarters in Cambridge, United Kingdom. I'd rather not waste time/effort on a ticket I'm obviously at fault for, and just chalk it up as the cost of running no front plate.Livestation is a media platform for broadcasting live radio and television broadcasts over an IP data network. If you take annual leave to go to court, leave has value so those two hours of leave cost you on some level too.Įither way you're going to end up paying in some form or fashion. If they do throw it out then you still lose the hourly pay you would have made. So if you take two hours off work and make $50hr then you just technically lost $100+the cost of the ticket if they don't throw it out. If you take time off work to go to the hearing, those hours you usually would have worked are now added to the cost of the ticket. I guess you didn't understand what I mean by asking what your time is worth. They get paid overtime to attend those hearings, if it's not during a shift. No reason I should just pay it because it's a law meaning just because it's a law doesn't mean it's right or fair.īesides if it means making the officer show up on his day off or keeping other no front plate bandits safe for that time he's in court then so be it. The only thing it costs me is time and it's worth it to me to either get it dismissed or reduced. I found this another reason to just avoid PG county, among the million other reasons. I've gotten two no front plate tickets in the past 5-6 years and they were both in PG county. It would cost me more money to fight the ticket than to just pay it. Not sure what your time is worth but I'd rather just pay the fine than take several hours off work to fight a BS ticket. I figure they waste my time least I can do is waste theirs in return. Worth it IMHO if it means $0 or only $50 if he does show. Only chance is go to court and officer doesn't show. Judge doesn't care if I have a plate or not, fact is I got a ticket so he is going to make me pay. $70 fine dropped to $25 + $25 in court fees if I go to court. Seems like everyone but Annapolis police give a shit about front plates.Īnd I know I am breaking the law but give me a break. Last time was Anne Arundel county police in Annapolis as well. Just ducking state trooper on a main street in Annapolis happened to see me. I got pulled over today for no front plate, wasn't speeding or anything. I read every time a bill to allow no front plate comes up for a vote police and toll representatives show up to kill it. Tolls use it to fine you for not paying as well. A fun fact, law enforcement uses your front plate to more easily lock on to your traveling speed for radar detection. Revenue I'm guessing, as it has nothing to do with driving safety. Don't know what changed other than my luck. FWIW it's worth I have gotten two no front plate tickets in MD over the past 3 months after only gotten warnings for not having it over the past 6-7 years.
