Yesterday I also spent my morning in court with my son over a ticket. More than 50% were spanish, we sat for the longest time because we had to wait for the interpreter to come in. She was obviously busy working her way around the 3 courtrooms. Anyway, ALL were charged with No License, No INSURANCE, No registration. This is not the first time I witnessed this either.
I was called in as a witness in that type of case in Baltimore city because the City kid stole my plates and used them to drive an unregistered-uninsured car and got pulled over. They kept me in court all day waiting, then let him go, put the case on hold until he gets another violation. The first time I went to court for it (subpoenaed ) it got delayed. What a waste of other people's time and money.
