My question involves a driver's license issued by the State of: CALIFORNIA

I was driving a beater car and got a light bulb out cite; a failure to register cite, twice. All of these were in three different counties and all are at the FTA and Collections disposition.
I don't have any money, I am basically homeless and the vehicle was impounded. Do I need to go to all three courts? Can I "refuse to pay" if the court will not show me mercy, than serve time? If I turn myself in at one county, will they transport me to the other two? Kern (Grapevine), Tehama (Redding) and Los Angeles County (San Fernando). I know I owe society and I am willing to do the time, I just do not have 3K to get out of this self inflicted agony!
