This isn't just poor people; it also me. For the past 15 years or so, the only tickets I've ever gotten are for compliance violations, like out-of-date license plate stickers. But because paying tickets is such a pain in the ass, and once you screw it up it gets weirdly hard to pay them without going to some special 2 hour triage line at a very specific DMV, I've had my license suspended multiple times.

(Once, I just waited it out; eventually, they sent me mail saying my license had been reinstated).

Also: I get so much goddamn junk mail that we can barely keep up with paper mail (I try to have the important stuff sent to my office instead). And a lot of municipal and state process gets routed through paper mail, which is my least effective communications mechanism.
