Hi Everybody:
I want to share my biggest nighmare with all of you.
I was making a delivery downtown New York driving through a construction zone for it seemed like hours at speeds of ten miles per hour on the freeway, millions of thought less drivers in cars all over me while I was trying to find my turn off while trying not to run into anybody while driving a big Commercial truck.
Well I made a wrong tern and was trying to get back on the truck route and was pulled over by a cop and was issued three tickets all for the same violation, I than was making my way back from Queens and was pulled over again by a different cop and was issued another ticket! It did not matter what I had to say.
Here is where the real fun starts.
I was told to go onto the Internet to plea guilty or not guilty etc, and after many attempts of imputing all the required information ticket numbers etc, I kept getting rejected no matter what I did!
I was than advised to contact a DMV office, ok lets try that. After several more hours of dialing prefexes to atleast fifteen different DMV offices all I ended-up with is press one, two, no phone information or contact information, and heaven for-bid no human contact at all.
So I called the NY City Police, another hour of different floors before I was advised to contact the NY State Police, commercial truck devision. I actually talked to a State Trooper who told me after I had asked him twice if I would receive any points for the four tickets I received? Because speeding was not involved and I do not live in NY State I would not receive any points against my Mich. Drivers license.
A couple of weeks later I receive another bill for $300 for a Driver Responsibility Assessment due to my six points I received for my tickets. Now I'm really Pi---d off.
I have a perfect driving record my whole life with no tickets or accidents that I caused, and I'm really concerned if this is going to effect my Mich. Drivers license? I was told I would not receive any points against my Mich. Drivers license but I would have a record in the State of NY. "is that going to hurt my Insurance? since I will not have any points against my Mich. Drivers license.
Can anybody (PLEASE) help me better understand if I should worry about this, and If I should hire an Atorney to plead not guilty after I have been railroaded and ripped-off in NY State.
I would not advise anybody to haul any freight any where NY or you will be sorry. Average speeds on the highway is around ten miles per hour, and stop & go on the freeway will only tare out your clutch and tie up your whole day. (Talk about a freek show)
Is there any organishion or service provider that represents Truck Drivers who are getting ripped-off by traffic tickets.
Truck drivers are the unsung heroes of our Country living out of our trucks for weeks at a time, delivering freight so we can make People's lives more convienent, but we are viuwed as low-life scum bags by most Police, or treated like second rate citizens viuwed by a lot of the public.
