[QUOTE="Evil Monkey, post: 2495225, member: 35447"] I've had an experience similar to this as well, or rather, my girlfriend has. She got a ticket for speeding in 1998 (I think) and we had to pay a $120 fine. We go to the place, pay the fine, think everything's kosher. A couple years later, we were employed throwing a newspaper route. Our contract was expiring and needed to be renewed when our boss comes in and tells us her license was suspended a few months beforehand. When we call DMV and ask why, they said it was cuz we never paid the speeding ticket from before! Well, we argued that we did, but of course since we (foolishly) didn't get a receipt, we had to pay the fine all over again in order to get her license reinstated. The really messed up thing is that according to the paperwork, her license was suspended three days BEFORE we got in an car accident, and the police that were at the accident scene didn't say a thing to her about driving on a suspended license. Bureaucracy is the true root of all evil, I tell you.... [/QUOTE]
