A while ago I got a ticket for Avoiding a Traffic Control Device by driving through a city park. I publicly asked about it on another site and some of them told me to just pay the ticket and not fight it... To them (and all Nay-sayers), I say MALARKEY.
The charges were dropped. The prosecutor asked the issuing officer if there were any signs posted to indicate that thru traffic was prohibited through the park and the officer said there weren't. The prosecutor then told the Judge that he was moving to not prosecute. The Judge dropped the charges and told the officer they need to stop writing tickets for a non-offense. I'm a free man... WOO HOO!!!
Now, I wonder how many people paid the city the fine and ended up with points on their drivers license because they blindly just went along with the system.
