    My company is firing people now if you get a seat belt ticket because the insurance company is breathing down their neck over it. If an insurance company is having a fit over that I can't imagine how they look at a cell phone violation

    Wow I mean I knew those tickets were expensive but I didn't realize they were like a DUI expensive that's nuts I think I can get you for whatever they want they had a bad day if their wife pissed him off if their dog bit him if the kids aren't listening even if the wife forgot to iron officer Friendly's shirt that morning a cop once gave my buddy's girlfriend it ticket back in high school because while she was driving she had her left foot up on the door hanging out the window she was barefoot and had her leg extended out yeah cop gave her a ticket for not being in proper control of the vehicle I don't believe that's what is titled but something along those lines

    10 points is the most severe, it's the same score as reckless driving. And since it's fresh, it's multiplied by 3 so he'll have 30 points for this alone until next year. Then it's 20, then 10 the following year.
     
    Hoodoo Voodoo Thanks this.
