    Question about PA Point System

    I got pulled over the other night and received multiple tickets, of which i know carry points, my question is....do the points add up? as in each say 2 counts of not obeying stop sign mean 6 points or do i only receive 3 points?

    I believe you receive the highest number of points out of all the violations. In your example you would only get three points. I don't know this for sure but I believe that's how they do it. Police don't really deal with points, that is a PennDOT thing.

    In NY you get points for every violation. If you have 3 summonses with 3 points each, that's 9 points.

    I mean, we're getting killed for these people and they don't even appreciate it. They think it's a big joke.
