Did you get other tickets along with the no endorsement ticket? Just curious as the lack of endorsement one will just get thrown out if you show up to court with the endorsement and have other violations they can use to get some money out of you. If the lack of endorsement ticket was the only one you got, you will probably just get the fines reduces when you show them you got your endorsement before court as they still need to make some money off of you.

In any case, get the endorsement before court and it will not be a big deal. Fail to get the endorsement before court and it might be a big deal.

actually, I got a ticket for careless driving. check out the post for "bike ride!!! 4/5/2009" (title of post). for the full story of what happened. it's about 12 down from this post. go to page 4. i think it's the last one on that page.

Took my class from highlands couple weeks ago, wasnt a waiting list. Signed up 4 days before the class. It was at sickles high school for 2 days and a class room in a hotel by tampa internation airport. good class, fun, useful, and its alot better spending the 200 on the class then spending whatever on court fees and tickets for having no endorsement

You don't need the endorsement to buy a bike, just to ride it.

$.02 I got a "riding without an endorcement ticket" a while ago. Got the lic. before the court date plead no contest and they only had me pay $72 for court fees. This was in 05 I think... so the fees might be alittle higher. Just dont try and be a dick in court or anything... they are really trying to nail "younger street bikers" to the wall.

I heard some shit about an $1100 fine for improper tag placement in the works. (ie sideways or by the hugger underneath)
