DAMN PIGS ! ! Got my first citation, What do I do next ?? I'm clueless Options

[hioctane]

Damn, after going filling up my car with gas, I went home and ran pass one of those stupid blank traffic-lights and a pig from out of nowhere pulled me over. After citing me, he saw alcohol on my passenger side which belonged to my cousin. Stupid ass cousin. After pulling me over those pigs pulled over 4 other cars and cited them for the same thing. What happens if I get cited ? The pig gave me a citation and talked about me going to traffic school to clear my citation , so that it won't show up in DMV RECORDS. How much does it cost to go to traffic school ?? is it expensive This is the first time I ever got pulled over damn it must be the exhaust system . How long is traffic school???=(

usually for traffic school it cost about $150 plus court cost of the citation.

[marcusk]

drivin school actually cost less for me..i had a $150 ticket, and the class only cost $90, i didnt have to pay the ticket if i took the class....

[Chrobis]

no no no! there is the ticket fee, I only know speeding tickets its like 106. then there is the going to traffic school fee which is like 20-30 more, then traffic school itself is 30 hours, and its 8 HOURS LONG! When I went everyone was falling asleep, including me... and I never fell asleep at school or anything, its damn boring! But the extra $60 is well worth it cause your insurance will go up alot more if you dont do it, traffic school basically cancels out the ticket. Remember though you can only use traffic school once ever 18 months, so be carful for a year and a half afterwards, then go back to your crazy ways.

ps. I live in cali also octane so I know what it is for here!

[hioctane]

ouch, I guess he won't be driving again until he's 21 or so .

[bojangles_8686]

Yep

[BlackSTX]

Damn. Traffic school in KY is only 3 hrs and you can go once a year. They're thinking about changing it to every 6 months.

Jesus! I gotta say, that in excess of 100 in 40 is pretttyyyy stupid. Hioctance, how do you know they pulled over 4 other people? And chances are though, that those 4 other people didn't have loud exhausts either.

they ran passed the broken traffic light and the cop stopped them by standing in the middle of the road then started pulling over the other cars. Those pigs man, they were off in 5 minutes and they had to pull me over.

i said 8 hours, not 30... what the hell are you talking about 30!?

[Guest_Matthew_*]

umm

Chrobis

you said that the traffic school was 30 hrs long

i think he thought that it was only 6 hrs total




also that guy who was going 100 or w/e in a 40 deserves his license taken away for a lot longer than his 21st b-day.


thats just stupid

there is a reason that they have speed limits.

[Chrobis]

MY BAD! not 30 hours, $30 and 6-8 hours.... so yeh.. once again.
estimated $100 for ticket
$30+ for traffic school request fee
$30+ for traffic school itself (6-8 hours long)

also: traffic school can be taken online. In one day, or strewn out over 3-4 nights 2 hours each. If you request traffic school they will give you a little book with all the aproved traffic schools for the area! inquire seprertly for the online traffic school as its only offered in certain counties as of now.

Broken traffic light? Dizam, sounds like you need to fight for your rights and take them to COURT baby.

[Guest_Matthew_*]

online would be easy


if its like a point and click thing that would be cool...or if they have you watch a video or video feed then you could just be surfin the web while they talk to you..

[DonMagicJuan]

It costed me $100 and I took the class on line it took me like 4 hours! I can't remember the site but you should ask the traffic school what their online address is then take the tests whenever you want and even retake them until you pass them.

No kidding, I don't know CA laws but if you go through a broken traffic light as long as you have the right away it should not be any violation. You can always pull the "I didn't know what to do" defense. Also say you didn't want to impede traffic and you were going with the flow of the other cars(or maybe the cars you had saw gone through earlier)

[Stipt]

Pfft screw driving school. Takes too much time and you have to sit and listen to some 'ol fat hag ramble on about how NOT to drive, even though he/she speeds around like a freakin' maniac! I got pulled over for doing a 89 in a 55 and the cop was nice enough to drop it to 79 and give me a citation, I liked that piggy, but I would rather pay the $175 fine than $80+ 20hrs of my freakin' time! Just my opinion....

[CelicaGT]

bring it back to the highschool days. run the headphone wires under ur shirt and pop then into your ears for a few hours. then pass notes with someone else. that should shave off a good 13 hours. works for me... lol
