I had a speeding ticket I couldn't talk my way out of, what got dismissed because it was for 2 over the speed limit. Also dismissed tickets for not having insurance (apparently the card the insurance company sends you is not proof of insurance in Texas, at least according to this shitass I dealt with).

Even though the tickets were dismissed, I still had to pay court fees. Which were for twice what the tickets were.

Hence the saying, you can beat the charge but you can't beat the ride.

    The fuck? How the hell is that not proof?

    Also, as someone who has also had to pay court fees over bullshit, it's freaking ridiculous how our society lets that sort of thing happen.
