My question involves a traffic citation from the state of: Texas
My mom parked in a handicap parking place in front of my apartment and forgot to hang her placard. It was sitting in plain view in a side pocket of the console of her car. She was issued a ticket and her car was towed, all in one night. The placard is valid.
Is it possible to just take the placard to the court with the ticket to show that the placard is issued to the car in question and is valid and have the ticket dismissed?
If the ticket is dismissed, is it possible to do anything about the towing charges?
I appreciate any help available.
