This was just a carpool lane ticket. I do own up to it, I will pay but the fine is just massive so had to rant. It's just shocking that it's that high, as my expectation is <$400. At the end of the day it is what it is. Lesson learn, time to move on.

Everything costs about $500 these days, give or take.

I wish a date with Jessica Alba would only cost that much.

can't hurt to try pleading no contest in court. That's how I've always had my fines reduced. Although I guess from the sounds of it things have changed a bit since then. I havent gotten a ticket in over 4 years so
