Show HN: Fight speed tickets issued in inactive work zones

Hey HN,
I built workzonespeedingticket.com because automated cameras are issuing fines in construction zones even when no work is happening and no workers are present.
The Issue: Many states (like NY and PA) are rolling out 24/7 monitoring. The cameras are dumb; they don't know if the construction crew went home for the weekend or if the "Work Zone" signs were left up by mistake. If you drive the normal limit, you get a $50-$100 ticket in the mail.
The Fix: I built a workflow that helps you draft a "Statement of Facts" disputing the "Active" status of the zone.
How it works:
You input the ticket time/location.
The tool generates a dispute letter challenging the state to prove the zone was active (required by law in many jurisdictions).
It formats it for the specific county clerk or administrative judge.
It’s a "David vs. Goliath" tool. If the state is going to automate the fine, we should automate the defense.
