Thank you! That's exactly how I felt. Of course, after spending the morning in court, seeing a few people hauled off to jail and a few others charged fines up to $10000... I was about ready to pay the ticket and run. It was a thoroughly educational experience. It's not just me. The system sucks. The guy in court for his second DUI in addition to a handful of minor offenses got his four year jail sentence reduced to a month, with four years "probation". So if he violates his probation(again) and breaks the law (again), he's in trouble *insert eye roll here*. The guy who called in before court because his car had broken down got that $10,000 fine. I guess excuses don't get you quite as far as lawyers. I wound up paying $178 and liking it. :p
