Where minor fines are greater offenses than drunk driving

“If you get caught drinking and driving in Wisconsin, and it’s your first offense, you lose your license for nine months, the story goes on. “For a hit and run, the punishment is suspension for one year.

“But if you don’t pay a ticket for a minor driving offense, such as driving with a broken tail light, you can lose your license for two years.”
