My brother got a ticket at Crystal beach back in the day, a lawyer did no good.
They are way uptight about beach tickets for some reasons, you may have to bite the bullet.

already called them. She said i could talk to the DA and Judge, but if they did not make a deal or drop charges and if i did not have "cash or money order" right then i would spend the night in jail

it was not even my car, and the owner was drunk.... i should have walked

One of my buddies got a ticket on Crystal Beach (on the beach) for no seat belt. It was stop and go traffic and the beach was insanely packed. Douche bag cop.

Thats bullshit. Go talk to the DA and judge, and have your money order ready! Try to explain and see what they say. It is not your car, so how would you benifit from getting a registration for it? Especially not even knowing it was out. It just does not seem like you should be responsible if you don't own the vehicle.

ALL courts are that way.

Its so stupid, but it doesn't matter if its your car or not. Should fall on the owner and the red light camera should fall on the DRIVER

F Crystal Beach. I got a ticket for an MIP a few years back. I had some beer in a cup, but I saw the cops and dumped the beer out of the cup, and they never sniffed the cup or anything. They just gave me a ticket for an MIP, and I pleaded not guilty. I went to court and they just ganged up on me. I got ~$200 fine, 8 hours community service, AA class, and 1 month suspended liscense (I didnt driive, or have my keys on me at the time of the ticket.) Good luck with your stuff. Crystal Beach is by far the worst place to get a ticket in Texas.

some courts are worse than others though.....especially like AGRV8D said, the tourist destinations and small rural towns....those are the worst of all, because they depend on that money to operate. larger cities make a killing just by the number of tickets that are written, because there are so many people doing illegal things....they don't really have to aggressively pursue stuff like the smaller courts do.

and btw, if you're ever in Magnolia, TX......DO....NOT.....SPEED. not even 1mph over the limit. one of the worst speed traps i've ever personally seen in my life.

I don't live there, I live on the Island, but I'm not sure if any lawyers live over there. You may have to get a lawyer from here on the Island....
