Re: Driver Responsibility Assessment

More | Report Post

I was also caught by this ridiculous law and refuse to pay the fee for
this driver assessment. This was not only my first offense ever (I am
an out of state driver (Massachusetts) with a still clean drivers
license (no points on my license from an out of state violation)) but
happened in small town when it was dark out and where the speed limit
is very poorly posted (what does a speed zone mean to an out of state
driver?) So the fee is so I don't offend again? Well, I'm not going to
driving in the state ever again so they cant force me to pay the 300
dollars without having informed me of anything previously. I would be
more then willing to take part in anything targeted at shutting down
this law.
