Dude. I just got a 200 dollar ticket for running a red light that was turning yellow to red. Like it was red as the back half of my car passed under the far light, it was close but I was in a hurry with my girlfriend and this fucking pig whips out of his speed trap and says he “has to” give me a ticket for that.

Like, okay, even if I BLATANTLY ran it I can’t even justify 200 fucking dollars for it. The asshole must have needed to fill a quota or something because oh my god.

So anyways, I can’t afford this right now. What are the chances I get in deeper trouble if I “forget” about it and never pay or pay late?

There probably will be a time in the future where I can afford it and then I’ll pay but if not like what am I supposed to do lol? Can you imagine someone in a worse position than me getting that shit? Anyways fuck these assholes any normal person would’ve just let me off with a verbal warning but no USian fucking pigs have to funnel their money up

    The phrasing is usually “Unless emergency braking is required”, which is what you descirbed. Running a yellow light when you can reasonably slow down beforehand and stop is forbidden for everyone’s safety.
