Musing & Muted Monologues...

Trying to Make Sense of It All...

Friday, August 01, 2003

Okay, I went to Adjuducation in DC and actually beat a parking ticket on a count of defective ticket being written. Because ya'll my folk, I want ya'll to peep game. Dig:
I beat my traffic ticket because it didn't state where the infraction took place. In other words, if you get a parking ticket, the officer has to state if it was on the north side, or south side, etc. This is because there may be a sign on one side of the street where you got a ticket, but not the other. Also, I learned that the owner's box has to be checked. In other words, if you have a ticket on the windshield, that box has to be checked which means it's the owner's responsibility to pay the ticket and/or deal with the repercussions. Not doing so means the officer would have had to write the offender name in the box and hand the motorist the ticket. It kinda means, "Okay, the cat wasn't here, so whoever owns this jont is gon' have to pay this." Lastly, check and make sure the lic. info is right, along with the make of your car. If this ticket is innaccurate in one of these fields, you can probably beat it. Why, it's like saying, I saw this guy rob that lady and you should arrest him, but not knowing if he's black or white. That lic. plate number and make means they were talking about you specifically. I didn't see it (because the officer's handwriting suck), but he took my lic. plate down wrong. Now, I was in the wrong, but don't correct me incorrectly and expect me to adhere.
Other than that, I did my vehicle emissions test for my truck, a mandatory two year event in which I passed. Also got my AC in the truck going with a shot of frion gas. Dude, these people are shiesters! You used to be able to do it yourself, but now it's required that somebody do it for you that has a license. You can't even get it without a license (buy the cannister of gas, that is). It cost me $50 for every pound of gas I got! I was empty so I had to get 3 pounds of gas!!! If it was anybody but my mechanic, I'd have been super pissed. But, my mechanic is a straight up good dude, so I know he wasn't tryin to get me.
Well, feel good; Beat a ticket and only had to be there for 45 minutes. And, I didn't get a ticket while I went to fight the ticket I had. Ya'll know that's a trap they have, right? That's where they give out $100 tickets to unsuspecting violator's, man. Ten signs for one parking space, and you don't know what applys. But, they always seem to. I was on a broken meter. Those things are like gold mines, but I seen it go both ways when it comes to fightin' tickets over 'em, tho'. Mostly they get thrown out from what I've seen. Emmissions test was no line! Dude, I slept for like four hours in th basement...sweet. I thought I'd have to run around all day, but things were taken care of quickly.
Great day off so far...
