    Pay the fine. It's not serious enough for you fight in court (meaning not worth the time)

    I got a ticket once for making an illegal stop (I stopped when there was a construction worker holding a stop sign on the side of the road). Went to court to fight it. The first court date was where you could plead guilty or not guilty... I said not guilty and they made me pay the full price of the ticket ($95) as bail to make sure I would show up for my next court date. At the next court date it was a bunch of D.A. henchmen trying to convince people to pay the fines at a reduced charge instead of fighting it in court. I left, said "Im' not paying"... came back a 3rd time when I was supposed to see a judge, and once again, they had the fuckin D.A. fuckers there. So I finally just settled paying a "parking ticket" fine for $35. The system got me. They don't want to enforce the law, they just want to make money.
