My question involves a driver's license issued by the State of: Washington.
I received a penalty of $550 for driving without a valid license. As is stated throughout this forum, proof of valid drivers license to the court and they shall reduce the fee to $50. When I asked the clerk why it was reduced to $128 and not $50, they said due to other "fees" but didn't specify.
Does anybody know where the additional $78 is coming from?
Also, I forgot to renew my license in large part because they did not send me a renewal notice, likely because I moved, although the DOL still had my correct address on hand. Being that I'm 24, this is my first renewal, so I wasn't anticipating the need to renew my license. Ignorance is no defense, but I wonder what you guys think about the failed renewal notice nonetheless.
Thanks!
Adam
