What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? California
Girlfriend got a red light ticket back in April. On the last day to appear, she went into court right before closing and the judge allowed her to take traffic school and knocked the fine down from $450 to $250 and gave her 90 days to do it.
Well 90 days is up Tuesday (11/30). Despite my paying for the online traffic school course, she hasn't done it yet and has $00 saved for the fine. Since I seriously doubt in the remaining time she can finish the online course AND get the completion certificate in the mail not to mention come up with $250, if/when she appears in court on Tuesday, what can she expect? More time to pay (IMO a waste of time, I love her but she's irresponsible), a suspended license, or possibly jail time (I don't think this is possible if she appears though)?
I am NOT going to pay her fine or take the test for her since I'm not the idiot who drive through a red light completely oblivious to it while yakking away on a cell phone.
Any suggestions or should I tell her to face the consequences for being irresponsible?
