Inspection Sticker Ticket (Question for the Experienced)
I ended up getting pulled over this morning for not having an inspection sticker on my M3 at all (not like I have an expired sticker...I have no sticker at all). The car is a garage queen and might get driven 1x a week, if that. I registered the car in Virginia in September, so it has been about 6 weeks since the car was registered.
In talking with some friends who have received expired sticker tickets, they were able to get the car inspected and go to court and show a receipt of this and get the charges dismissed and pay no court fees. Can I do this considering I didn't have a sticker at all?
The court cost is $66 which isn't the end of the world, but if I can keep that $66, I would like to.
Thanks for any help.

Re: Inspection Sticker Ticket (Question for the Experienced)
I am allowed to go the to county clerk window today and pay the $66 court fine and be on my way without ever having to appear in a courtroom. However, my question is, if I get the car inspected and show up in court I want to know that I won't be made to pay the court fees and have to spend hours in court. I would rather pay $66 and not enter a court room or pay nothing and spend the time in court.

here's a thought...go down to the court house or pick up a phone. perhaps you missed that you were illegally driving a car down the street.

Yea man, get it inspected and show up in court. more than likely they will waive the fees and be on your way.

You are all tuned up as if I am denying wrong doing...I am not. I am just asking a question which you chose to respond to. If you can't avoid being an asshole, simply don't respond. It's easy.
