minimum fine is $271, I heard they wanted to raise it to over a grand the other day, can't remember where I heard it though.
--------------------
Yellow94GT never touched anyone's sig or banned anyone, so I'm going to quit spreading that rumor. It's not like I have any proof anyways. All yellow94gt and other mods have done is volunteer their time to help other people buy/sell parts, learn how to make their cars go faster and meet fellow enthusiasts. I'm a hater, but it's hard to hate on these facts. I have saved hunrdeds, maybe thousands of dollars here buying and selling parts over the years alone, but I don't care, this website owes me damnit, and I'll piss on it as much as I want. Us haters gonna hate. Why contribute to something when you can take for free?
I act like I'm@Age15
I make friends on the internet that are@Age18
I was picked on in my youth so I became a bully@Age24
My mouth started to run 24/7 on the internet, but my car never at the track@Age26
First pubic hair@Age30
Troll@Age31
My internet friends and I ALL just got the boot for good!@Age31
Yes, you read it right, 31 and just as childish as my fresh out of highschool internet friends@31
Oh yeah, this isn't my website, so no one has to ask for my permission to change my sig. Hell, not like I pay the CAFORDS bill, so why should they need my permission to put what they want on their site? We're all guests here. Maybe some of us should start acting like guests or leave?

I think if the sign on the freeway says one fine then you should be able to fight it. its like changing the speed limit without changing the sign to go with it. I would fight it if they try to charge you more than whats posted.

I definately dont have the funds to pay the fukkin state 1K for 5secs inthe carpool lane. They have to be fukkin insane. I'm going to file a fukkin hardship or something. How the hell do they expect people to pay that! I gotta find a way around it if it is indeed a 1K fine. I will pay the $271 posted, but they can kiss my fatass if they think there going to get $1K from me. Unbelieveable
Sorry for the rant, this has been the worst fukkin day of my life!

And also they usually never even budge on a carpool ticket, thats pretty much straight forward, and i also got that notice about the raise of the fine.

I'm sorry but they don't worry about you paying for it, that fine is so high to stop people from using the carpool lane that shouldn't be using it...
I know Id be pretty pissed if somebody used the carpool lane to pass me just to gain 5 seconds on their commute.

The above is a hoax. Read below for the real story

quote:
the minimum "suggested" fine for car-pool violations did rise in 2007 to $380, there is not a county in California where the fine would exceed this by any more than a few dollars. The fine does not double for any second offense, nor will your license be suspended for a third offense.

fight it, say traffic came to a sudden hault, and the only safe option you had was to enter the carpool lane and look for a spot later up the road to safely get back over, it was that or rearend the guy infront of you or risk being rearended.. It got me out of it once.
