    The reality is most people rarely get tickets. You would be better suited IMO putting $32/month into a savings account and forgetting about it until you need a lawyer.

    If you find yourself getting tickets often enough that you are getting more out of the service than you are putting in, chances are you won't have a job or a license long.

    Print and save the card on this site . Several members here have used them with success . I had a must appear ticket and never went to court because they got the charges reduced to a nonmoving violation before the court date .

    So I had this service for several months. I cancelled it later cause I figure it just a quick scam, they were pushing us to get it in our orientation class. I got it along with most everyone else in class.
    Im on my time off today and got a call at 7am (still sleeping in) I ignored it and they called again. Later today I was driving home and got a call and Ive answered it. This guy from Open Road was calling, asking all kinds of questions "Are you still protected" etc etc. being all pushy. I'm like "yeah I am protected"
    He's "oh what is the insurance company you are with now"
    Me"I don't want to answer that"
    Him "ok have a good day"
    Me "you too"
    Basically I guess he calls around to all the people who quit this scheme and trying to reel these suckers back into the scheme.
    I have insurance on truck I drive through company. I drive careful and obey laws. I dont need some lawyer for $32/month to represent me.
    Have you heard from ACTUAL Open Road customer who was represented in court etc. It's all just them saying how good they are, they great coverage, court dropping charges against your just cause they will represent you, etc etc.
