Jesus Christ, how many ticket threads have to be posted before people realize. NEVER PLEA GUILTY, EVER.

Plead to the…REDUCTION, not the ticket given. But please, by all means, plead not guilty to both if you want and watch the judge max you out because they have very little leniency for this type of stuff.

Tell the story to the D.A. and they will reduce the charges. They you plead guilty to the reduced charges. Should be around 2 bills + school.

D.A. was a dick in my case, judge came through for me.

yea if you plead guilty, you waive all rights you and are more vaunerable to the tiny guy who drops the soap in a prison shower.

just plead not guilty, say that the bus did not come to a complete stop that you saw yea (dont tell the judge the cop was wrong. big no no), and maybe you will get al arge fine with little points.

That tends to happen. But if he didn’t give you a reduction you obviously wouldn’t plead guilty. The judge reduced the charges… and then you took the guilty plea.
