Quote History Quoted:
Plea it down to a moving violation.
Now some interesting things about the law
1) The representatives who passed the law exempted themselves from it.
2) The cop who wrote the ticket is exempt from it.
3) The DA who is prosecuting you for it is exempt from it.
4) The Judge who will try you case is exempt from it.
Ask the judge for change of venue as you are the only person in the case who is subject to this particular law and you don't feel that you can get a fair trial in this instance. I have heard that Aimless is taking these cases pro bono.
I would ask legal experts if a law does not apply to all people equally, it is constitutional?
