My question involves a traffic ticket from the state of: Texas
I was driving home from dinner and took a turn a little too fast. I was not speeding nor did the police officer ever say I was speeding. My tires squealed a little bit thru the turn. Moments later I was being pulled over. The police officer searched me, searched my car, and gave me a sobriety test. I complied with everything the officer asked. He seemed a bit pissed after he could not find anything on me and ended up writing me a ticket for squealing tires. I called the court today and asked them how much the fine is. $370!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! And it is considered a moving violation which will be reported to my insurance. I am so frustrated and upset with all of this.
Can anyone offer any advice as to how I should approach this situation? I'm thinking I could speak with the prosecutor and plead my case to them. But maybe there is a better option?
Thanks!
