타주에서 받은 스피딩 티켓으로 인한 벌점 관련 질문입니다

4/16 (일)에 사우스 캐롤라이나 (SC) 프리웨이에서 스피팅 티켓을 받은 캘리주민입니다. 

 

65마일 프리웨이에서 74마일로 티켓을 받았는데, 벌금이 $76에 벌점이 2점이네요. 코트에는 나올 필요 없다고 표시가 되어 있습니다. 

벌금은 온라인으로 지불했는데, 벌점이 신경쓰이네요. 마지막으로 티켓받은게 8-9년 전입니다. 

 

벌점을 없애려고 SC주 온라인 트래픽 스쿨을 알아보니 할인해서 $35 정도 하네요.

 

SC주 National Safety Council (SCNSC)에서는 캘리포니아주의 절차를 밟으라고 합니다. (You will then need to follow California’s procedure for reducing your points. I would suggest calling them.)

 

ChatGPT에 물어보니 아래와 같은 답을 내놓네요.

If you have received a traffic speeding ticket in South Carolina and you hold a California driver's license, you may be wondering if there are any options to reduce the number of points that will be added to your driving record.

Unfortunately, South Carolina and California do not have a reciprocal agreement regarding traffic violations, which means that any points that you accrue in South Carolina will likely be added to your California driving record as well. However, there are still a few steps you can take to try and mitigate the impact of the ticket:

1. Attend Traffic School: In some cases, attending a state-approved traffic school can help you reduce the number of points on your driving record. However, it's important to note that South Carolina may not offer this option to out-of-state drivers, so you should check with the court handling your case to confirm if this is a possibility.

2. Contest the Ticket: If you believe that you were unfairly ticketed or that the ticket was issued in error, you can contest the ticket in court. However, keep in mind that this process can be time-consuming and may not ultimately result in a reduction in points on your driving record.

3. Hire a Traffic Lawyer: If you're looking for more personalized assistance, you may want to consider hiring a traffic lawyer. They can help you navigate the legal system and potentially negotiate a plea bargain that reduces the number of points on your driving record. --> 견적 받아보니 $400이 넘게 나오네요.

 

티켓발부한 SC주 Court에 물어봐야할 것 같습니다만, 혹시라도 비슷한 경험 있으시면 도움 부탁드립니다.
