a guy I work with got a open container ticket and he is trying to find out what is going to happen when he gos to court. Fine or what? Anyone have any idea?
 
had a buddy get one not too long ago and he got away with a fine. cant remember how much, but i dont think it was bad.
 
open container is a bench warrant NOT a traffic violation (I think my terminology is right, I know my premise is) Fine only no "points"...
 
yep, not a moving violation, so it should not affect his license or insurance. but it will cost.
 
Open Container laws are such bull shit....I love going through Tennessee to see the g/f's parents because they don't have open container laws.

What are you a cop or something?

You have cop hair. :flipoff2:
 
it's not even a misdemeanor, it's an infraction. and not even a moving one at that. i'd pay it off and not have a take a day off work.

You were the reason I put my disclaimer, I knew Id screw the lingo up
 
Open container is BS. If you have a beer can in the bed of your truck, you could get cited for open container.
