After court was over I was so excited! The judge said I was only have to pay a fee of $70. Then, I find out at the clerk's window, the state of California, charges a fee of $26 for every $10 of your infraction costs. In plainer words, after traffic school fee has been added to the State's pillaging of my pocket, I'm still stuck with $396 in total costs.
The only advantage is that I got a continuance for payment and I got to see some people who really have it bad. For example, one woman came to surrender herself to County Jail to serve her 60 or 90 days sentence. The judge even joked with her, saying that she would be in the same prison as Lindsay Lohan!
