[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If MD and VA won't acknowledge DC camera tickets, why doesn't DC just "debit" any tickets received by DC residents in VA or MD against their respective states' balances with the DC government?

For example, I am a DC resident and I get a $40 parking ticket in VA. I should be able to take my ticket to the DC government and they will reduce the amount owed by VA residents in unpaid tickets to DC. Further, DC will not add any points to my driving record that VA and MD try to add until such time VA and MD residents' balances are paid in full (or reciprocity is agreed between the three jurisdictions).

Can the state of VA or MD try to place a collections notice on an out-of-state individual for an unpaid ticket?

Why isn't DC fighting fire with fire on this issue? Let us offset any tickets incurred in VA or MD![/quote]

Ain't nobody got time for this non-issue, Holmes.[/quote]

There's nearly a billion dollars in outstanding unpaid DC traffic violation tickets going back a decade plus.

How cute of you to call a billion dollars a "non-issue" - if it's such a non-issue then maybe you can just write the city that billion dollar check out of your own checkbook, Mr. Moneybags?[/quote]
