WTF is up with the court processing fee
Posted by: mmmmm coffee ()

Failure to obey highway sign
Statute: 46.2-830
Fine: $30
Processing Fee: $62
Total: $92

I got a ticket for making an illegal left turn.. I am fine with a $30 fine but a $62 processing fee is ridiculous.. Does anybody know if it is possible to get out of that fee without wasting an entire day at the courthouse?

If the police cite you under state law, the money goes to the state. The 'processing fee' goes to the county. So there you have it. The county needs to get a (bigger) slice of the pie too.
