What is the name of your state? California
My fiance and I thought we were covered by Century 21 for insurance. We paid for six months, but then we got a letter in the mail saying we would be covered X amount of days since a refund was issued in the form of a check. First off, we never got a check. Second, the letter was post marked more than two months before we got the letter. They didn't even call. Well, I am chronically ill and we were driving to the bookstore around 8:30 in the evening to get a book on the illness. A cop pulled us over because he thought we "defaced" our license plate, which ended up being just a bunch of dirt around the letters/numbers. We did not have proof of insurance and told him why, what had happened. We got a yellow slip to appear in court. Well, my fiance did. He was driving and is the registered owner of the car. This was I think a Friday. A couple of days later we were on the freeway going to his place of employment. He went to merge into the middle lane when one of those ******* drivers sped up as he was halfway merged and he got pulled over. No ticket for that, but we also didn't have the insurance yet-we were going to do that that week. He has to appear in traffic court now on the 20th of this month for the city of Pleasant Hill in California, and the 2nd of December for Pleasonton. Can he be fined for the same offense twice under these circumstances? My main concern is that we are on a very limited income with me being unable to work and living in the Bay Area (we can't move becaue of where my doctors are in case of an emergency) and can barely make ends meet as it is. Thanks.
