I got pulled over two years ago and was notified by dps that my license suspended. thought I had paid a lawyer to take care of ticket and it was not. had to pay the ticket. dl was suspended until end of september. owed $900 for the 1st surcharge that I did not know about, plus another $300 to have dl reinstated. because of those fees, I still haven't gotten dl valid. plus I now owe new surcharge of $900. got pulled over for a license plate light being out Halloween (work in midland live in Austin, returning home to vote) got taken to jail for getting another dwli ticket. now I owe ANOTHER $900 and dl is further suspendedAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16000989223577836936noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8597101.post-24662830625855872762014-05-01T01:26:32.733-05:002014-05-01T01:26:32.733-05:00no surprise there 4:02 the United States Supreme C...no surprise there 4:02 the United States Supreme Court has been doing the same for over a decade.<br /><br />sorry but when a court tells you that what your doing is legal BECASUE your not doing "x", "y", and "z"<br /><br />then you walk out of the court and begin doing all those things.
