Over 3 Million Tickets Dismissed
I always thought of a pedestrian as a carless (and possibly homeless) person. One part of me feeling sorry for them (and their aching feet), while the other part of me feeling envious of them. Envious of the money they save by NOT paying for gasoline, NOT making a car payment, NOT paying for insurance…
I was listening to a talk radio station in my car. Apparently, a study has been conducted regarding animals that mate for life. I was a bit surprised that this particular study is being funded, while a much more important study, why people don’t mate for life, is still left unsolved. Bitter… party of one.…
I just got my first camera light ticket. Better a $75.00 camera light ticket than a $285.00 ticket from a policeman, I thought. It was in my own neighborhood, so if it were from an officer, I would just have driven to my house and ran up to my porch and yelled “BASE!” they hate that.…
Not only are gas prices skyrocketing, insurance rates seem to be going up too. As a result, more people are taking a defensive driving class to get an insurance discount. Not only adults, but teens as well. In most states, taking a defensive driving class will award you with a three year discount on your…
With late Spring comes rain, beautiful wildflowers and Mothers Day. What a wonderful Mothers Day gift it would be to take pictures of your children in a field of Bluebonnets. This is what was going through my head as I was driving down I-45 in Texas. And then I saw it! There it was! An…

Sometimes they tackle two or three laps around the lake. One lap is certainly enough for me. In fact, the only reason I can imagine myself doing…
If you get cited for a moving violation, what are your options? You could pay the ticket. But, if you do, those points would go on your driving record and your insurance could increase as a result. Even if you check the box on the ticket to plead “Not Guilty”, and you pay the full…
Road rage is an epidemic that has swept across America in every big city. It seems like these days it is more prevalent in today’s fast paced world fueled by technology and social media. Now you can update your Facebook by copying someone’s license plate number and calling them a ______(insert obscenity here.) It is…
There is only one thing that could possibly be worse than being handed a speeding ticket, going to the courthouse to pay it and being told you have to go to traffic school or face having your license suspended. While going to traffic school might save you money and help you keep your license, taking…
Don’t pay that ticket just because you don’t have time to attend a defensive driving course. These days you don’t have to pay for an expensive course, take off time to take it, and then travel half way across town to spend an entire day listening to a class. While it is easy to see…
