- Q. I have to work during my court date - what should I do?
- A: Usually you can send an attorney to go for you, if it's just a traffic violation.
- Q. Caught going 86 in a 55 near bloomington, Indiana with a NY learners permit in a rental car. How keep it off my record?
- A: As long as the charge isn't a crime in Indiana, the conviction won't affect you in NY. Just pay it, or get an attorney in Indiana to reduce it for you, if that is cost effective.
