Every state is different - while I’m not sure how mine handles multiple speeding tickets, ask me how I know that 30 mph over counts as a major accident on your insurance. At that point, the cost of the ticket is almost irrelevant (approaching a toll both on a highway, when I passed the new speed sign I hadn’t yet slowed enough, the assholes. If they looked at my speed like 50’ later…).

Anyhow I have to expect it’s more “good old boy” corruption, where at each step he gets dismissed or charge reduced

Edit: oh, speed camera infractions. I believe those can’t be criminal since you have the right to face your accuser.
