VC 27156(b) Require smog ref - correct AND PAY BAIL - $361
VC 5202- Display period (front l/p) - correct or pay bail $103

$514...
hell

 

gg for your.... i got a failure to comply i wonder if i have to pay for that or not...

 

is this for real? correct and Pay? wow, that is excessive punishment for doing nothing.

 

I think this is a good first step to making something happen.

I'll be writing an article sometime tomorrow at work, because there's no way tonight was a coincidence, long story short, after being pulled over 3 times in 2 hours, I also got a state ref for my exhaust (I have the most stock looking set up you can get- the cobb catback)

As MYNIKONLENS said, all this BS.......

FOR DOING NOTHING!!!

 

I thought my car is pretty stock looking as well....
Wow 3 times in 2 hours?
So many ref tickets handed out ...... no ref stations open...... hmmmm

 

WTF, are you serious?

Correct and pay bail? WTF?!

 

this is bull**** guys.. it seems the CHP are getting orders from higher government to prosecute us. Its a huge revenue scheme in most aspects. We need to formulate a plan of action (what to do now..). If u guys have AIM lemme know.. I think they're cops on this board, so i'd prefer pms or aims

anyone know what they're gunna do?
pm me

peace

 

It's not just the chp :/

 

i hear san jo is gettin crazy. not tooooo bad up here in 707, but that'll change cuz im sure words getting out to all police agencies to get us.

 

wow didn't realize it was that big of a fine
need to buy my corolla beater ASAP then

 

I just came from downtown San Jose.
I had to drop my girlfriend off so she could run into her office building to drop off some stuff. We normally do this together when she needs to make a quick stop at the office building (that way she doesn't have to go by herself for safety reasons/pay 7 dollars to park for 5mins) I dropped her off and decide to circle around. I saw about 4 different patrol vehicles driving around so I decided to pull into the parking lot to park, for fear of being ticket for some BS reason. as soon as I parked, A patrol vehicle parks right behind me. Now I'm Freaking nervous. I thought to myself "is he going to harass me?" he sits there for one minute but it felt more like 10. then suddenly he decided to leave. Luckily I was driving my girlfriend's car, or I knew he would have done something to me.
but get this, as he leaves the parking lot, he makes a left turn onto the street from the right lane...... That pisses me off.
ok end rant.

 

how if you don't correct and just pay?

Cause the first and last should be $10 when corrected...

 

A friend of ours got ref'd in los altos and he got fined like 538 or something. Soon as he paid it and they said he was good to go he got another ref ticket :/

 

I just called the Department of Consumer Affairs. Here's what they told me. There is no way to get the ticket signed off by an officer and the only thing I can do is go to court to get an extension. As far as a reduction of the fine goes - I'll have to ask for one when I'm in court. It also looks like I cannot schedule a court date as it is handed out, which means I'm screwed if it falls on a day that I have class.
