Many Texas juresdictions will not report tickets as a part has to go to the state if they do, whereas if they don't the proceeds stay with the county (so I've been told, and that really doesn't make too much sense to me, either, but that's how it is -->reference the town of Dumas, TX). Also, in Texas it requires 3 tickets or more (unless they are of the "arrestable" nature) to increase your rates. But those go away after 3 years. But at any rate, why risk it?
