Does anyone know?
I've been pretty lucky so far, but i want to go illegal on my tint, run no front plate and a smoked rear plate cover...
I'm definitely ballzy enough to do it...but can i rack up fix it tickets and not worry about it?

around here we get 10 day cards. You have to take your car in to show them you fixed the problem.
and what happens if you dont?
They come under darkness and steal you.Quote:

That is fucking hilarious.Quote:

There are 2 39th district courts by me, and I put it in the one for my city, not the one i got pulled over in (dumbass me). So, now that $90 turned into over $200. For a fucking light!! Yeah, it was my fault I didn't pay it, but damn. That was my whole tax return (i was only 18, wasn't makin a lot of money).
Oh, by the way, it was for my 1986 Mercury Lynx. total piece of crap.
Anycrap...to sum it up, they keep track.
but there aren't fines for fix it tickets here. doesn't anyone know?
Update: I got a fix it ticket again like 4 months ago, I haven't heard shit. Nebraska don't give a shit apparently :D
The reason I didn't get it fixed is because a former cop I know told me not to worry about it.
In florida I know they go on your record and your insurance company gets the info too. And jack you rates accordingly for driving with unsafe equipment.
Well I am happy I don't live there :D
Here in PA. If you are pulled over multiple times for the same thing you get listed as a habitual/repeat offender, which could cause you to loose your liscense for a while..
But, on the plus side, no emissions or inspections there. I think the lack of inspections might be why they do it that way.Quote:

If its a ticket..here anyways... you have to show up tp court. f you fix it, tell the judge, a cop will sign off on it and you'll be home free.. no fine to pay.
Yes they do! You do have options though. You can not fix your shit and just pay the fine, or you can fix it and have a cop sign off showing you fixed it and only have to pay a few bucks. Either way, it goes on your record here in FL!Quote:

I think the DMV keeps track as well. I know they do here. So, when you go to register your car or renew your license they'll get you then.
Not in Nebraska. Fix it ticket means less then a warning. About equal to a verbal warning.Quote:
