Got into an argument with a co-worker when I told him I'm not paying a ticket on a red light camera. He challenged me saying I would not be able to renew my driver's license. I call BS. Has ANYONE been refused a driver's license renewal on the basis of not paying one of these tickets?

They have no legal power to stop you from getting a license

So if someone else gets the ticket in your car, you can't get your drivers license renewed?

They let OJ Simpson renew his driver's license.

You're cool.

Got one of those tickets 3 or 4 years ago. Renewed since then... also had to go in twice for duplicate licenses bc I lost mine. Your co-worker is full of shite.

Is there a car associated with his drivers license?
Tards.

Doubtful, but in Texas some counties will block your vehicle registration renewal.

Tell your co worker to bend over and pull his own head out of his arse

You're co-worker is wrong.

But if that camera ticket is in Orleans Parish and you don't pay up, better be careful parking your car in the city because they'll boot your car.

I do not pay red light camera tickets. I have had my license renewed since I've had outstanding red light camera tickets.

Got one in the mail this week. Will not be paying. Advocate article from last year, Cameras are a Cash Grab
quote:

There is no punishment for vehicle owners who ignore the notice. The city-parish doesn’t sue violators or boot their cars. The information doesn’t get reported to insurance companies or filed in police databases. It isn’t a hindrance to renewing a license, nor is it filed in driving records.

It depends on where you live and where you got the ticket.

BR doesn't penalize you, yet.

In Houston, they will run your license plate at the toll booths and pull you over if you owe.

I along with a few co-workers have been booted for camera tickets in the CBD NOLA area. They can boot you, that's about it.

I got one in BR and one in NOLA back in 2012. Never batted an eye at them. No repercussions

You can get your license renewed, however, in TX they will block your car registration from getting renewed until you pay.
