    If you got one ticket for two violations and you haven't got any ticket in over a year can you take defensive driving for both violations, just one, or none at all?

    I recently got a ticket for "running" two stop signs. I stopped my car both times but the officer said I did not completely. I just look up my ticket today and each violation will cost me $237. Can I take one defensive driving class for both of them?

    Nope, only one. Hire a lawyer for the other or both. I paid around $125.00 for a lawyer for two tickets last year, and besides the boredom of sitting in court for a few hours, I got out of both without having to pay anything else.

    Same here. Hated that I had to still show up but oh well.
