If you are reading this blog, there is a good chance that you were stopped by a New York State Trooper while driving along I-84.  

I-84 is well known for its windy hills and varying degrees of speed.  Many drivers have fallen to the watchful eye of the police assigned to patrol this highway. 

Their convictions have resulted in multiple points on their licenses and tons of money wasted in fines and insurance increases.

You do not have to suffer the same fate.

How Many Points Will I Receive?
