What does a ticket cost? I'd let any1 lick my smelly feet for 20 bucks.

I haven't gotten a ticket in years, but I think the absolute cheapest tickets are over $100, speeding will be somewhere between $180-300 depending on how much over you were going, and the really big boys like repeated no insurance or passing school busses can climb to $500-1000.

I had a speeding ticket I couldn't talk my way out of, what got dismissed because it was for 2 over the speed limit. Also dismissed tickets for not having insurance (apparently the card the insurance company sends you is not proof of insurance in Texas, at least according to this shitass I dealt with).

Even though the tickets were dismissed, I still had to pay court fees. Which were for twice what the tickets were.

Hence the saying, you can beat the charge but you can't beat the ride.

The fuck? How the hell is that not proof?

Also, as someone who has also had to pay court fees over bullshit, it's freaking ridiculous how our society lets that sort of thing happen.

it was about 400 in fees and travel down there to fight it was 500 a day unless i slept in my car or knew someone.
