Fighting Traffic Tickets gets interesting

According to the article, 63% of traffic tickets are withdrawn because of office no-shows at the court. City is planning to pass a bill which will pay officers overtime to attend court proceedings.

Change your driving habits :idea:

So true,

I think the point of this article is the fact that there adding more JP's specially trained for traffic cases to expidite the backlog. I think they should just throw out all current tickets :) that be nice...
