It's 3:27am here right now and I have to go to traffic court tomorrow. Have never been there before and I got a $167.00 ticket for no seat-belt so decided to send the ticket in to at least lower it a bit. I actually did have my belt on but was taking it off as we pulled into the store, next thing you know I hear a siren and see lights. I was VERY surprised when the cop walked over to my side of the van. I was a passenger.
I did not realize at that exact moment but Dave had a huge chuckle about it. The guy actually thought I was a hooker and said as much without using the term. I know I can't bring that up in court as it's all conjecture, but I'd certainly like to.
Anyway, it's a crazy time of the night/morning and I am overthinking this damned ticket.
What's worse is that it's also my Fry-Guy's first day in grade two, rather than picking him up after his class, I'll be hoping a judge has mercy on me and lowers this almost 200.00 fine to something more tolerable.
*sigh* Tired I am.
Traffic court is simple. They herd you around like cattle for a hour or two, and then they settle with you. Some 12-year-old assistant D.A. will look at your paper. If you're REALLY lucky he or she will give you a condescending little talk, and then reduce your fine.
Let us know what happens.
