Good luck with it.

In creating an infraction, they took away your rights.

Its basically an administrative proceeding, which is why its a fee rather than bail or a fine.

You don’t even have to show up. If you elect to pay the fine, it counts the same as a guilty plea and goes on your record.

The system makes it easy.

so, you take it to the next level for a trial de novo, administrative procedures go up a level for a judicial review or a trial de novo.

What you describe may be true in your state of residence. However, as a citizen of the State of Texas, I have sent attorneys to handle moving violations on several occasions. It cost me as much as the tickets would have, but all of them were eventually dismissed.

If you are having to pay fines without benefit of legal representation for little other reason than the courts choose to call them "infractions" instead of something else, then your problem is your state of residence. You should consider changing it.
