Who Writes the Tickets in Greenwood
The Johnson County Sheriff's Office and the agency that reports for Greenwood (filed by the FBI as Greenwood Police Department) write the traffic tickets in and around Greenwood.
The FBI's agency list also places one more agency in Johnson County: Clark-Pleasant Community Schools Corporation (other agency).
The Driving Record and the Indiana Bureau of Motor Vehicles
Convictions are reported by the court to the Indiana Bureau of Motor Vehicles, which keeps the driving record and decides on points and suspensions. Order the driving record from that agency, not from the court.
Paying a ticket is a conviction, reported to the Indiana Bureau of Motor Vehicles like any other; contesting it means a plea of not guilty entered with the court by the date on the ticket.
An OWI is a criminal charge rather than a ticket, with its own license case before the Bureau of Motor Vehicles (see Greenwood DUI).
