I got a ticket for "following too closely" -- copper said I was "3 car lengths away at
65mph" I thought I was at a fairly reasonable distance, but whatever... In any case he gave me a pamphlet with my 3 options: 1) send in the money and accept "any applicable" points (it was a generic pamphlet for all moving violations) 2) take a driving course and pay the fine but don't get points or 3) plead not guilty and get a court date I'd prefer to just pay the ticket if it's going to be 0 points, but I'm only 23 (my license is in VA) and I'd prefer my insurance to go up as little as possible... The ticket doesn't say if the particular violation has any points and all I have to go by is the pamphlet which leads me to believe some violations have points and others don't. This will be my first moving violation on my driving record FWIW... |

Have you checked with the Florida DMV? ** -- JohnHoo? Sat Nov 7 2009 10:36:33 AM |
You need to contact someone in FL (lawyer ?) to see about the points.... -- MadisonHeightsHoo Sat Nov 7 2009 7:45:15 AM |
