WTOP: Ticket Error Blocks Vehicle Registration For Montgomery Village Woman

Due to an error, a Montgomery Village woman was unable to re-register her car more than a month after she paid a speeding ticket in Gaithersburg, WTOP reports.

Ilsa Bohn tells WTOP TicketBuster that she got a speed camera ticket back in April for driving 35 mph in a 25 mph zone in Gaithersburg. She took it to court, lost and paid the fines and fees back in July. WTOP posted a copy of her receipt for the ticket and court fees at its website, WTOP.com.

But when she tried to re-register her car in August, she was told she couldn’t because there was a flag on her account from the speed camera ticket in Gaithersburg, WTOP reports. 

When reached by WTOP, Gaithersburg City Police Sgt. Scott Scarff said police fixed the error and told the radio station that a court system vendor, Xerox, failed to inform police that the ticket had been paid.
