Yeah I got a hearing. The "judge" looked like the guy in Ray Horton's avatar. I probably didn't play my cards right. I had the option of making the police officer show up, but after waiting for a while, I didn't feel like coming back another day and waiting again. As far as arguing my case, my "case" was basically that the law is ******ed. I basically admitted to lying on the seat, just tried to tell the judge that I didn't realize it was against the law, was cooperative with the police officer, remorseful, etc. They make you swear in. I was under oath, so I didn't want to lie. There was an American flag in this guy's ****ty office, this was serious business. I also told him the cop told me these things get reduced/thrown out, which I why I kinda was tempted to make the cop show up, but I'm sure he could have just lied about it.
Eh whatever, lesson learned
