For people to get multiple tickets means that they are breaking the laws enough to get caught when chances are slim of ever getting caught in the first place. Yes safe drivers will get hit by this but it will be the ones that really break the laws which will take the biggest hit. I do not agree with the fines as they are set up and would like to have seen them imposed on people who have prior convictions.
So basically you're saying that it's OK if a few good people fry as long as we can punish the bad drivers even more?

Like I said, I among everyone here, make mistakes driving. I own my own home, I have a decent job and two incomes coming in. But even with that, I cannot BEGIN to tell you how hard and bad that would set us back as a family all because the state wants to add some additional revenue.
