Is this true if you get a ticket you don't have to get points taken away

Question

WHAT TO DO IF YOU GET A TRAFFIC TICKET This system has been tried and it works in every province. If you get a speeding ticket or went through a red light or whatever the case may be, you are going to get points on your license, this is a method to ensure that you DO NOT get the points.

When you get your fine, send in a check to pay for it. If the fine is $79.00 make the check out for $82.00 or some small amount over the fine. The system will then have to send you back a check for the difference, however here is the trick. DO NOT CASH THE REFUND CHECK! Throw it away!

Points are not assessed to your license until all financial transactions are complete. If you do not cash the check, then the transactions are NOT complete. The system has received it's money and is satisfied and will no longer bother you. This information comes from an unmentioned computer company that sets up the standard databases used by every province. Send this to everyone you know. You never know when they may need a break. I talked to an ICBC investigator, and he said its true..what a screwed up system,eh?

I'm just wondering is that true?

Answer 1

Not true in CO.

Depending upon the amount of the overage, they either sent you check back (you then get a warrant AND you license cancelled) or they just send you back the difference.

No biggie.Especially as the state doesn't want you to cash the check...

Answer 2

A moving violation like speeding, passing a red light or a stop sign, is points on your license. A parking ticket or anything else while your car is parked is no points.

Answer 3

No!
