Does anyone else feel like these massive tournaments for kids are getting way too intense lately? I remember playing in local leagues growing ấy and it was just about having fun, but now it feels like a professional grind. Is the "win at all costs" mentality ruining the point of youth sports?
Back in July 2008, I was involved in a fender bender where I was at fault. The real kicker is that I was driving in the shoulder—it’s a minor thing, really, but it changes the whole math. Everything would have been fine if the lady I hit hadn't called the cops, who then came out to document the scene. I was buckled up, blew a perfect 0.00, and was keeping it right at the speed limit just to follow the rules—it was just that yellow line issue...
So, my question is: how much am I looking at in terms of fines and court fees for this violation, and what are my actual chances regarding the statute of limitations?
Also, do you think an appeal might work? The officer noted down my occupation as a full-time student—which I can definitely prove with my transcripts. I don't have any income, my parents aren't exactly wealthy, and this is my first offense.
One more thing—I haven't received anything in the mail yet, not even a formal notice... (any idea how long the wait usually is?)
