Default More tickets :/

Alright so I got my second wave of tickets today in the 70 Camaro, the main one is for no inspection and the others are license, insurance yada yada.

Is there some way I can get the inspection one dismissed if I get it inspected Saturday? It's been in and out of transmission shops, body shops etc so I just haven't had time.

God damn I am up to like 6 tickets right now lol.

I have been pulled over so much lately I don't even get nervous anymore, just sit there and chill with the radio. "Dammit again?" lol..

Quit driving an illegal vehicle, seems a like a pretty easy solution.

The registration ticket should be dismissed if you pay the 20% penalty when you renew the sticker. They will ask if you have had any tickets, be sure to say yes.

It was for inspection.

I figure they should throw it out of I give them the inspection receipt. I didn't want to take of work to get it inspected but I guess I will bite the bullet and do it tomorrow instead of Saturday. I would have gotten it done a few weeks back but I didn't have the right insurance card.

Had this problem last year, got pulled over on the way back from the inspection place(failed) but didn't get a ticket though.

Get it inspected and it should be dismissed! To many points they can suspend you now. License, insurance,reg.,inspection and all that good ****. Hell I have more problems now and drove with no license till I was 25. 10 years later well..........

If you have licence, and insurance then they will get dismissed. Get the tags and inspection the fine will not be all that much

Alright hopefully it will be dismissed, it's not like I am trying to screw the state over, just didn't have time plus the car has been in and out of shops since I have had it. It is registered so I don't have to worry about that, that cop had a good eye though to see it from that far away.

I am curious why he didn't just look up the plates and see it was insured. I just realized I haven't titled the car in my name yet though. My next court date is the 28th so that's good, my license expires on the 22nd so I can get my license, court and title my car all in one day since I can't take off school otherwise.

Inspection will be dismissed as well as the others if you have a license and insurance, but there is just a court fee.

Talk to a attorney. I payed 50$ for speeding ticket and a 1 1/2 years later still hasn't gone to court. That is if you need some time. Then everything would be in order.

Just to set the record straight for you guys, if it expired 60 days ago(maybe 90, can't remember) and you get it inspected they can drop it no problem. If it's more than that you still have to go to court and explain it to the judge. My car expired this month last year so I have court still, all my other tickets dropped and I can do defensive driving for my speeding ticket. Thank God!

you know what would have been a quicker answer ?

reading the form the cop gives you after you sign the citation.

just saying.

or even if you lost that, googling.

I don't remember it saying anything about inspection but I didn't read it very well. I did google it but I got all sorts of mixed results. I had to go anyways to get my license and insurance tickets dropped so no biggie. Just wanted to give you guys a real answer for future problems.

did you give the cop your name and DOB !?!?

if you did and he checked his database, it would have showed that you actually had a license.

ticket should read "failure to display license" as opposed to "no license".

Yes I did, he was just being an ***. Every other cop has been able to look it up except the motorcycle cop for obvious reasons.
