I'm thinking about going to court as well.
I got pulled over about two weeks ago for a broken muffler. The cop doesn't give me a ticket but says he's noted it in the computer and I have 30 days to get it fixed. If I'm pulled over after the 30 days and its still broken, I get a ticket. Fair enough. I thank him and get on my way.
Two days ago I get pulled over again and the guy gives me a ticket for the broken muffler. I complain that I am still within the 30 day time frame the other cop gave me. He replies "take it to court if you don't like it".
I had the muffler fixed and picked up the car today. I have the papers to show that it was indeed fixed within the 30 day time frame given to me by the first cop.
I want to take it to court, but I don't want to take a day off work either. The ticket is only $95 and I make more than that in a day of work. It's just the principle of the damn thing. The first cop was so nice about everything and the second guy was just the opposite.
