There is nothing wrong with trying to get out of a ticket. No1 is perfect. We all break the law somehow. Weather it's speeding, taking a pen from work, Turning left on a red, Doing a U turn in a no U turn zone, Going 1 mile an hour over the speed limit,downloading music,movies, video games.... We all do it. No1 is perfect. Getting out of a ticket doesn't make you a criminal. To say you never do/did anything wrong is rubbish.
Jesus, how did you miss the point THAT badly? Is the adage, "If you can't do the time, don't do the crime," really new to you? Nobody should speed, hopefully that doesn't have to be spelled out for you. People do speed for various reasons, as do I, but if I was so poor that a speeding ticket was going to be a huge problem for me, then I wouldn't. If a ticket is a huge problem for someone making $11 an hour, then they probably shouldn't be as reckless as the people that can afford to get caught once in a while. You seem to think that if the punishment isn't affordable, then poor folk should exempt themselves.
