    And it wasn't fun.

    I got two tickets for
    a)having 3 people in the car (Provisional license) $150
    b)failing to show my license $180

    The 3 people in the car I can deal with, but failing to show my license was a killer. I left it in the gym locker room!! Now I have to go to court 11-02-09 and explain the mess. The feeling of getting a ticket is so much shittier than I ever imagined. FML.

    Does anyone know if they can take away my license cause of this?

    It depends on what state you live in, IL has pretty low tolerances when it comes to screwing around with your license under 18.

    Or 'Ghost Ridin' :)

    But seriously, I don't know what state you live in, or how it works if you're under 18... but I would think failing to show your license would almost be like a 'fix-it ticket'...? i.e. you go to the cop station, show them your license, and they write it off. I could be wrong but you should research and find out. Good Luck!

    will your parents pay for an attorney? if so let him take care of it and fight it for you.

    if that's not an option keep drawing out the court date, finally when you do go to court hope the officer doesn't show up, your ticket will get thrown out.

    wait? aren't they not allowed to pull you over for "looking" too young? isn't it a second offense having too many people in your car?
