I rolled through a stop sign (turning a corner), I did not run a red light. I am not trying to escape penalization. My original comment was, bummer, I screwed up and ruined my day. I do realize that traffic laws must be enforced, and that I am not exempt. I think though that almost $300 for this offense is a little high. It was never my intention outright argue that I didn't deserve a ticket. I simply would like to have the charges changed a little in my favour. I think at times the police need to make examples, and perhaps that's what I am, since the fines have just gone up. Remember the attempted murder case in Sylvan Lake which has since been downgraded to criminal mischief causing bodily harm or something to that effect.
