i dont know if these "you shoulda done this" and the "that was dumb" comments are gonna help at all. a matter of fact, your just making him feel worse. i got pulled over twice in one day and got tickets in both instances before and yeah it sucks. sometimes you wanna get somewhere and you arent really paying attention to speed. i know how it feels cause i drive alot, probably more then anyone on this board. so everyone cut the ******** and post only if you have something useful to say.
now that being said, i offered tim to use my NY addy to change his liscense over to the good ol state of NY. this will be of benefit to him in many ways:
1. he may not lose his liscense.
2. points dont transfer into NY, so basically you can speed all you want in other states and never worry about points. (like i do
)
3. our insurance is a ton less then NJ, i pay 1k a year for my camaro for full coverage. yeah its under my dads name but his liscense sucks almost as much as mine does. the saturn is under my name and even thats only about 1500.
Tim, my advice to you is to call the NYS DMV in albany and find out what the procedure is for transfering your liscense with a pending ticket. tell them you moved already and that you know you have to change your address within a certain amount of time.
before i was in my second year of college i had gotten my 20th moving violation. i have gotten 5 or 6 more tickets since then and i have 6 points on my liscense right now and am taking the point reduction class soon. i know how to work this system cause of my driving record.
besides, you know you wanna claim residency with an egyptian household.
