Today, my car got a wheel lock because I had 5 tickets. Three of those tickets dated back to 2006. I got my car and license in 2008. FML

Well obviously there was an error. They go by license plate not vehicle. Go fight the boot.

Does it mean two of those were still yours and that you hadn't paid for them? And seriously.. do they really track tickets by car, and not by driver? Smells like a fake

YDI for getting at least 1 ticket -- YDI for not correcting the issue when the police sent you a notice for outstanding tickets when they received updated owner information from the courthouse -- or YDI for not properly making a change of title request to the courthouse.

Its your fault for buying a car with outstanding tickets on its license plate and not changing them

A wheel lock is the boot they put on your vehicle's wheel so you can't drive it. You have to have seen it in a movie or something.

We don't have it where I live. In any case sounds like a pointless thing to do, I'd just saw it off and drive anyway.

because you carry powersaws in your car on a regular basis.

You don't necessarily need a power saw, I have a pretty compact regular saw that can cut through steel (made in the Soviet Union).

YDI for getting so many tickets...

Tickets follow you on your record. so if you get 5 tickets on your first car, and don't pay them, if they scan the 3rd car you own they'll boot it.

right, but he got his license in 2008 too, not just his car.
