Sometimes it’s a whole bunch for a lot of money and you can only imagine what the original offenses were, but Amherst really likes their parking ticket revenue.

👋 ive gotten points from amherst.

this may be new, but its not what I experienced. I dont think you can ever really put “always” in front of that. there are always different situations.

Ive gotten both no points and points from tickets in amherst.

Since you already have been to school recently you won’t be able to take that as a plea bargaining option. You said you have had two previous tickets but since they were knocked down to non-moving violations I wonder what the DA will see? Would he see no recently moving violations? I would think that would get you some leniency.

That must be recent. Plus, is that even legal? 4 years ago I had a speeding ticket in Amherst that was dropped to a muffler ticket + driving school. No points and it cost me about $100 including the class
