2010See Department of Transportation, Bureau of Traffic Safety v. Cormas, 32 Pa.Cmwlth. 1 , 377 A.2d 1048, 1050 (1977) (citing Department of Transportation, Bureau of Traffic Safety v. McCartney, 2 Pa.Cmwlth. 540 , 279 A.2d 77, 80 (1971)).

2007DOT alleges that the trial court “gave a break” to Park Way and Mazzarini because Mazzarini’s “business had never received a suspension, and ... the information which was missing was due to computer problems.” (Trial Ct. Op. at 2.) DOT relies on the proposition in Cormas that “it is a manifest abuse of discretion for a trial court to modify a suspension, or, worse, to reverse a suspension, when it finds that the party charged has committed a punishable violation but it disagrees with the penalty imposed.” Cor-mas, 377 A.2d at 1050 .
