Don't just pay the ticket. Your daughter will receive 2 points on her master driving record. What you need to do is call my office and we can help. (866) MICHDUI. Happy New Year! Eric I. Kutinsky

Re: wrong address on ticket

If this is the only ticket your daughter has received, she would benefit by requesting a formal hearing which would likely result in 0 points being placed on her record. If she just pays the ticket, 2 points will be placed on her master driving record.

The wrong address is not helpful to you as she should have changed her address with the Secretary of State within 6 months of moving. Not to do so is a misdemeanor. She should change her address ASAP to avoid a penalty.
