I always get a lawyer, and it always costs me one day of work. The frustration of traffic court is mind blowing.

If you ever want a reminder of what a pile of morons the general populace is, just spend a day at traffic court.

Significant amounts of people:
a) show up late
b) don't listen to directions (as stated above)
c) expect the court to speak whatever language they do

Also, the cops always show up. They get paid OT to do so. (why do you think they write tickets in the first place).

Anyway, after a few hours, they usuall call my name - I walk up front with my lawyer and they dismiss my case. I don't know how or why, but I don't care.
