Can you see what that is?
I had to go there to get a court date for a ticket I got.
Speeding? No, I don't do that.
Wreckless driving? Nope.
DUI? Nope.
No setbelt? naw.
Driving with no hands? No.
Failing to yield to a pedestrian? Yes.
I was at a 3 way stop & a young man ran across the other side of the intersection from me. He was briskley walking but ran across the crosswalk when he saw the mounds of traffic. I had started to go before he stepped onto the street. The officer pulled me over & told me what I did wrong. I asked him how I didn't yield to the pedestrian. He told me the guy had to run to get out of my way...seriously? The geo couldn't accelerate that fast if it had a turbo in it...that thing crawls. I was at a dead stop & had started rolling when the kid THEN stepped onto the road. I explained to him the kid had already been jogging. He left the car with my license & insurance & returned with a citation...WHAT?! It didn't have an amount on it. I asked him how much it was. He said, "I'm not sure, but it's okay, it won't be for much." Oh, since it's a cheap ticket you might as well give it to me, right? Even if I didn't do it... lame. So I went to the court just to see how much the ticket was before deciding to do traffic court. $90....wow, I don't know about you, but that is a 5th of a months rent. Or a million loafes of bread. Does anybody consider $90 'not much?' Dang. So, I'm contesting it to a prosecutor on September 28. If I fail to show up...they will arrest me...hmm...I better not forget! :)
