About a month ago I got pulled over in downtown San Diego for driving a couple blocks with no headlights (cvc 24250) and when I got the ticket in the mail the fine is $239. Everything I can find online says the ticket is about $150, and since I don't have any other points on my license I just don't understand where this number is coming from. My husband is having me take it to court, so I guess hopefully I won't have to pay that much, but can anyone help to explain this to me, or what they might say to justify it in court?
I'm really freaking out here, it was an honest mistake (excuses, excuses etc)
