I think there is an error on my traffic ticket

[Courage the Cowardly Dog]

I just got ticketed for not coming to a complete stop at a stop sign in a walmart parking lot.

The court date on the ticket is Dec 2nd 2:00 AM

[kahljorn]

we got a form b ack today saying we were denied for something because we didn't file it before december 31st 2003.

[Courage the Cowardly Dog]

should I deny them some traffic revenue?

This is why it amazes me that Geggy thinks the government is smart enough to have conspiracies when they are to dumb to write tickets.

No it's probably right you should show up anyway.

A stop sign is a stop sign. You could have killed somebody, but you figure "duh, its just wal mart, they just put those signs there as a decoration officer! Man, don't you know the law sir?"

Yeah, your totally in the right on this one! Theres no way a judge will fine you for only running a stop sign in front of a busy retail store.

You shit head.

Evil Robot, Did you read the TIME on the ticket. I dunno about you but I dont think traffic court runs til 2:00 in the morning.

Don't you remember that hilarious sit-com called "Night Court" that launced the careers of such luminaries as Harry Anderson, John Larouquette and Markie Post? Surely that was based on fact!

On a side note, I have that fucking stupid PB&J song stuck in my head. Damnit!

Are you sure thats not the 15 day deadline you have to go to the court clerk and either pay the full amount or plead innocent and be given an actual court appointment?

A ticket by itself is not a summons. A summons will only be issued if you fail to notify the court of your disposition.

But then what the hell would I know about traffic court.

the whole 11:60 thread on the miniboss board started becuase of something like this. this dude had a appoiment or something with he doc i think. anyway the time on his paper work said 11:60am. he called them and ask "should this be 12?" and they said "no. its 11:60"....

I was always under the impression that the Police can't issue tickets when private property is involved. A Wal-Mart parking lot is most definately private property, so that might be a way to get it thrown out.

[Fathom Zero]

That's what I was thinking, too, but I'm sure he's talking about the one on the way out of the parking lot. In that case, and if he ran through it full blast, he might've taken out a few people on public property.
