Quote from the article:
There were 2,155 tickets issued for using cell phones while driving and 107 tickets issued for texting while driving. The maximum fine for the tickets is $150, which goes to the city, and there is also a state surcharge of $80 per ticket, according to court officials. That could mean that the 2,262 tickets could generate as much $339,300 in fines and $180,960 in surcharges. Judges have the ability to levy fines less than the maximum, so the fine total could be much less. |
