    To the OP:
    If you incriminated yourself before you were arrested then its your own damn fault. Miranda is not required for a traffic stop.
    Umm...a racing ticket can go well over $1000. I have also known 4 other people that did the same...and they got a jury trial. So umm no.

    Is the racing ticket alone more than 1k, or is that the amount after all charges are added together? With racing you can add speeding, court costs, reckless driving and several other things that could easily go over 1k. Just like a DUI case. The actual ticket doesnt go over 1k, but when you add in all the other costs, that number goes far higher.


    I'm not also not saying that you COULDNT get a jury trial, but a prosecutor would be dumb not to fight it.
