Well I just got it on Saturday but it will probably over $200 out here plus I haven't had a ticket in over 10 years so if I add in Traffic school I'm probably looking somewhere in the neighborhood of $350-$400

Sorry to hear it. Sucks, because the money from the ticket could have gone to a mod.

That sounds like alot. Defensive Driving here is only $25, then the court cost which is about $108 I believe. Is that for court fees and traffic school?

Sorry about the ticket bro. I was in cali (ontario, <--spelling) back in 2004 and it's a complete 180 from Texas. If you guys aren't battling earthquakes and mudslides it's wildfires. From what i hear, CHP doesn't believe in warnings either.
