Default California license plate fine

What is the actual cost ?

At this link http://www.saccourt.ca.gov/traffic/fine-breakdown.aspx it says it can be 178.00 ? I'm sure someone here has actual experience with this.

I'm sure that fine is imposed if you don't correct the offense. When you get the ticket, the box for correctable should be checked. If you correct the ticket and show the front license plate properly, then the total fine for correction I believe is $25.

Go to CHP to get the ticket signed off if its a fix-it ticket. They will not charge, most other places to charge for inspection.

Mine was $50 in the city of Arcadia last December.

It was considered a parking violation, but it was "no front plate" that was checked off on the ticket.

500% more than the ‘base’ fine. Talk about crazy extortion. The mob wishes they made those percentages

Mine was just a fine, not a fix it ticket.

When did you pay that fee? I'm pretty sure that was I believe last years court fee. For this year, the court fee is now $25.

Yep, 25 bucks for a fix-it-ticket. Have the CHP sign it off than wait in line at the court to show proof and pay the fine. Than do what I did after I paid it, I took the plate off in the court parking lot. I believe having no front plate is a secondary offence meaning they have to pull you over for something else. I got pulled over for tinted windows than he walked around my car and saw I didn't have a front plate.
