I basically got Judicially Screwed!..(I think)
Had my Court Date for my Loud Exhaust ticket…..Went to State Ref got certificates saying everything was “fixed” up to State Code.
Went to court this morning….Got my turn up to the judge and said good thing you have these papers it lowered the Fine a bit…
So for Each thing the total came out to $360!!!
No dismissals ….Is that right??.....I was really dumb founded, Isnt that why I got sent to the State Ref in the first place???
I think I got screwed??....or no?
Grrrrrr……Anyone that has been through this....Shed some light?...How much was your fine?....etc...
Thanks!
Here's the breakdown:
For my intake it was $175
Exhaust was $150
$35 fee for doing MOnthly payments.
ALL corrected at a State Ref with documentation!

because the court needs all they can steal from you in cali. since the budget cuts, we recieved inside at work on petty citations california is pushing. "1" mile over the speed limit runs over $245, pass a stopped school bus over $600, park in handicap 2nd time $1800 plus, text or cell $145, and the list goes on.
We dont' have any of that stuff here in Arizona. The worst that the cops nail ya for out here is tint.
I really feel bad for you guys out there, the man sticks it to you and breaks it off, smiles and says "next" all in a feeble attempt to cure the budget shortfalls.

in our club we have gotten close to 15 of these exhaust tickets.....and everytime is a dismisal with a $25 dismisal fee....i would really talk to the clerk at the court or a lawyer...
that sucks man cuz when i got a ticket for tint and exhaust and i got it fixed and i live in cali btw i was only fined a total of 40 dollars ($20 for each) but that was early last year...luckily the cops here in my area hasnt given me a ticket yet
True. It's amazing all the fees that get added onto a small fine. Thank goodness I'm an old dude. Been pulled over four times in the Box, every one of the officers asked me if it was my son's car. All four of them let me go after they got a little tour of the ride. I guess there are a few advantages to being old.

On a side note, Greg you have to contact the county clerk at the court house and deal with it that way. PD has no jurisdiction on your fee.
Pls the youngster cops dont remember you terrorizing the streets of HB back in the day because they weren't born yet. LOL. Plus Taz, your car doesnt scream come race me or FNF themed. Shoot you have a surf board on top of your car. LOL.
