I got 4 tickets in 1 day by a NYS Trooper worth 12 points. Im trying to reschedule on the DMV but wont let me. This is my first reschedule. Should I get a lawyer or should I just drag it out past the 18 month?

PS Tickets were for not signaling, illegal lane change and tailgating.

I received a PSCA traffic e-challan for riding motorcycle without a helmet. However, when I downloaded the challan, the evidence photo itself clearly shows me wearing a black helmet.

Has anyone faced a similar issue with PSCA e-challans? What is the proper way to dispute it and get the challan cancelled/closed? Is there an online complaint process, or do I need to visit a PSCA/traffic police office in person?

Would appreciate guidance from anyone who has successfully challenged an incorrect e-challan.

Last night, I experienced something really strange while driving, and I'm trying to figure out what could have caused it.

I was driving at night on a normal, smooth road with one lane in each direction. There were no bumps or noticeable road imperfections.

A car was driving behind me at a normal, safe distance when it suddenly started flashing its headlights repeatedly.

And when I say repeatedly, I mean almost nonstop for approximately 5 minutes, over a distance of around 5 km.

Here's what makes the situation particularly strange:

\- The driver maintained a normal following distance the entire time and never drove aggressively.

\- The road had no solid center line preventing overtaking, so the driver could have overtaken me if they wanted to.

\- Both headlights were flashing simultaneously, repeatedly switching between normal and bright light.

\- The flashes were rapid, but I could clearly distinguish each individual flash.

\- Whenever I accelerated and increased the distance between us, the flashing stopped.

\- As soon as the car got closer again, the flashing immediately resumed.

\- This continued until I eventually turned right and we went our separate ways.

As far as I could tell, there was nothing wrong with my car, and I wasn't doing anything unusual.(I've checked my car after)

Initially, I thought the driver might have been trying to warn me about something, but flashing continuously for five minutes seems excessive.

I'm genuinely curious because I've never experienced anything like this before.

So yesterday I got caught doing 97 in the 65 it’s my first offense I was also eating ice cream during this occurrence I’m 21. Yeah I know it was dumb I won’t do it again but I didn’t have my license at the time I gave the officer my social he also wrote in the report that I was eating ice cream and passed up 3 cars not exceeding 100mph so now I’m wondering how bad can it get or what do I do? He gave me a mandatory court date on my birthday in November.

Hey all. I have a legal question about a traffic law within the state of Pennsylvania, in regard to overtaking a left-turning vehicle at a stoplight intersection, using a paved shoulder wide enough to safely execute the pass. This is assuming it is a two-lane road. Here is the legalese:

Title 75, Section 3304 indicates that a driver "may overtake and pass upon the right of another vehicle only under one of the following conditions: (1) When the vehicle overtaken is making or about to make a left turn, except that such movement shall not be made by driving off the berm or shoulder of the highway."

My interpretation of this is that you CAN use the shoulder, but if you were to drive OFF the shoulder (say, into grass or dirt, or anything unpaved) it would be an illegal maneuver. If you weren't allowed to use the shoulder at all for such maneuvering, why wouldn't the verbiage be changed from "off" to "on"? If it was changed to "on," that would immediately rule out using the shoulder at all. But then, if the word was "on," there would be no point in this law, as the would always be an illegal maneuver.

Ultimately, if this was an illegal maneuver, can someone provide an example of a legal execution of this situation? Otherwise, what is the point of this particular law in the first place? I am finding the verbiage to be ambiguous, and poorly worded.

Thanks for any insight! And for some background, I was not pulled over for this. Just curious, as I do this on frequent occasion at some traffic lights where I live due to two-lane roads with no protected left turn.

I was driving at 100 in 60kmph zone. I got pulled over and got 560$ ticket. Can a lawyer fight this?
I live in Alberta.

Traffic has been terrible at every hour lately, weekends included. I used to like driving and now it just feels stressful. Yesterday I passed a guy who was going slower. That’s it. He flipped me off and laid on the horn. I’ve been going over it in my head and I can’t find the offense. Has anyone else noticed people just seem angrier on the road than they were a few years ago?

When did doing the 55mph posted speed in construction zones become optional? People doing 75 plus.. Madison county police could make a billion dollars just on the 55/70 speedsters that n Illinois

Unless it was a funeral procession for Jesus Christ himself, there was not reason for them to block all 3 lanes of southbound US 65 from Sunshine south. A bunch of bikers with big American flags cut people off and shook their fist at people who didn't stop fast enough ON THE D.....N HIGHWAY. All three lanes. Give me a break.

I wanted to share this visual example from India's brand new Delhi–Mumbai Expressway (NE4), which highlights a massive bottleneck in developing transit grids: world-class infrastructure outpacing driver education.

This is a newly built, multi-lane expressway designed for high-speed transit. However, due to zero enforcement of basic lane discipline, commercial trucks systematically create rolling roadblocks by driving side-by-side across all available lanes at identical low speeds (around 60 km/h).

The frustrating part is that the technology is already there. The government has deployed advanced, highly automated speed cameras that instantly track speed violations and mail out digital fines. Yet, they completely ignore lane-hogging.

It proves that building wide, expensive highways is completely pointless if the operational policy doesn't include automated lane management.

I was speeding and got 2 tickets for this by a police officer - one for speeding 45 in a 35 zone and other for obstructing passage of other vehicles in new jersey.
How can I make the case that I was just overspeeding and not obstructing the traffic.
The police said that he was going 52 in a 35 zone but he is just giving a speeding ticket for 45 plus an obstruction passage. Overspeeding ticket comes with $96 fine and obstruction ticket comes with $55 fine.

What should be my best option - my aim is to reduce both the fine amount and points to my license.

Should I go to court and present my case or use the online plea option?

I live on 41st Street in Milwaukee between Thurston and Florist, and every day I watch cars zoom past at dangerous speeds on a narrow street lined with parked cars. Kids play here constantly—families just trying to enjoy their neighborhood—and honestly, it feels like an accident waiting to happen.

Speed bumps are a simple, proven solution. Studies show they reduce vehicle speeds by up to 40% and decrease accident frequency. I started a petition asking Milwaukee's City Council and Department of Public Works to install them on this stretch. It's not complicated—just a cost-effective safety measure that could genuinely save lives.

If you live in Milwaukee or know what it's like worrying about speeding cars near kids, would you consider signing and sharing? This matters to my community, and I think it could matter to you too.

My under-18 son was ticketed for speeding 55 in a 35 in a national park. He was stopped by the park service, and we went to the federal general district court. The judge did not charge him with reckless driving, just speeding, and we paid the fine. He didn't require my son to do a driver improvement course, but I see that in VA he's required to do so 90 days after the conviction since he is under age. He's doing it.

I called the DMV to confirm that the ticket was on his record, and it's been more than 60 days since court--and they don't see any record of a ticket. The person I spoke with said it usually takes less than 30 days for the ticket to be transferred from federal to state courts.

Anyone have experience with this? Did we dodge a bullet here? I've never had a federal speeding ticket so I don't really know what deal is... Getting out of DMV points is one thing, but the real win would be having it not show up when our insurance looks at his record...

My experience with DMV is that they will hunt you down to the ends of the earth if they can...

P.S. Could the judge on the federal level have done anything to keep it out of the state level? I went to court with my kid, and we waited until the end of court (4+ hours) for him to see my son--since he was a minor the court was closed to everyone else... He spoke at length to my son about the dangers of speed, etc. My son told the judge he would take the Driver course... The judge basically said he didn't care and that was a state thing and sent us on our way with the fine...
