Best not to question the authority because then you appear cocky.

If you start arguing little points like that, it will make the prosecutor less likely to cut you a break and lower it for you.

Soulja...hypothetical question. You said you already know the past violations of someone when you ask them if they've had any tickets before... and if they don't have any, and are honest, etc., you'll go easy on them.
What if they had a single ticket and are honest? A little less easy, or still-getting-the-ticket-cuz-you-didn't-learn, or ...?
Hmmm... things I've never considered before. I'm glad I stop at all stop signs, though...

if he goes to court doesn't he have to pay court fees either way? or are you saying to prepay it?
