I came across something that kind of surprised me in a way..unrelated to this.
Some States let you officially “bribe” them if you get a traffic ticket. You can pay your ticket and it goes on your record..or you can pay extra..and by extra.. it is not small change...to have it not go on your record if you stay clean for a certain amount of time.
This is not the defensive driving type of thing. This is pay a dollar amount and we won’t rat you out to the insurance company. No course needed.
Legal bribery.
You can do that on some criminal charges. Stay clean for X years and your conviction is expunged.
