    So that means “suspicious activity” will be on the rise.

    What about driving without a valid driver’s license? I know plenty who are driving everyday without one. When did a non-drivers ID become the same as a driver’s license?

    Exactly what I was thinking. Steep fines for texting and driving.

    How is it even possible to be uninsured this day and age. Have to have it renew tags and the moment you drop it they notify the dmv

    Not true. I have a son with an undocumented woman in Blount county. When they were pulled over, their tickets were triple. For example, driving without a license which is normally 500, was 1500. Or they would be threatened with deportation. So they payed. I know. I sit there and watched this many times.

    Still much more lenient than Ga. There, you would risk jail time, immediate license suspension, mandatory driver’s education, and reinstatement. And every step of the way, the fees rack up.

    This has been a law since 2013. WHY is this a thing now? And why are the fines lower than originally when it FIRST became a law. (See attachment.)

    But… a $40.00 tic in this town = $200+ after court costs. Cop said I was driving 19mph over limit… Speedometer had stopped working on way to work. Truth, fact, and i proved it at stop! Did that legit excuse matter? No! Scamming speed trap city! Judge not worthy to serve.
