Must appear in court for traffic citation, under 21?

[changaroo]

hey guys,

didnt really want to post this in the whoreslounge for obvious reasons, but back in early april i got a traffic citation.

it was for using an H.O.V lane improperly. it was the on ramp to 75 by the tiffany's & waffle house for those who know where i am talking about.

i honestly had no idea that it was an H.O.V lane, and neither did the 12093801923 other people the cops pulled over the same time i was pulled over.

i pulled up my traffic citation online and it said i had 0 fines to pay, so i called and asked. apparently if you are under 21 you have to appear in court?

i have no previous driving records / traffic offenses so im not too sure what is going to happen? i wanted to just pay the ticket and be done with it... any idea why they want me to appear in court?

thanks

because. they're gay.

even if there was a fine you'd still have to show up. happened to me in sandy springs. cept i had to show up with a parent.

they prolly just want to scare the crap out of you and boost the fine by including court cost. but that is my opinion...... this isn't that bad i don't think you will get bashed that bad maybe alil bit of making fun but it is all fun.... i would rather people have questions like this than know someone in the car scene is drinking and driving

court fee's. lawl. they added a $50 dollar court fee to my ticket back then.

The only reason they want you to appear in court is because of "underage" as they see it. I got pulled over around a year and a half ago and they told me I had to appear in court because I was 20.

I find that dumb. Court sucks, its a waist. I had to go, but you only have to go for certain violations. You'll be fine. But I hate how they pull ppl over for stupid crap. Like going with the flow of traffic so you don't get run off the road...

they're gonna make you take driving classes!! and then the judge will say "you'll thank me for this one day!" and give u another court day... OR if he's in a bad mood, he'll say, "you're a menace to society!" < that's if you're currently not working.
i dont think i'mhelping. You wont be in serious shiit.. worst is driving classes... and/or points. i can picture him giving you a 1st warning.

Wooters? =P
