Now there's a traffic ticket!

With Cedar Rapids moving to automated ticketing this should be a warning of what can happen when the system makes mistakes. A Facebook friend in the Emirates posted this:
The key line is the 111790. That's the total fine in Dirhams. That's $30,434. Somehow the computer system screwed up and kept giving him the same ticket over and over. You'd think it would be easy to clear up... but then things are rarely that easy.
