    I'm in Montgomery,AL and that is exactly what they do. I just got done paying a couple of thousand dollars last year from back from 2009. It just kept adding up. It was obscene. I lost my license because I couldn't afford to pay. I'm a disabled single mother but I finally paid enough to get my license back.

      No, they would ticket the poor who can't afford to fight tickets, which is already what they do. Wanda is just explaining something that has been happening for decades.
      Ticketing a rich person might mean u have to deal with a lawsuit or they could be powerful enough to get you fired.
