Heed this members advice....seeing as though one of those "cops" is a moderator on this forum....
OP, I don't know what you mean by "tabs," but figure it has something to so with registration. Put the "tabs" on and take a pic. Go into court before your court date and see if the prosecutor will drop the ticket. Explain your situation and have PROOF that you corrected the violation. They are usually good about cutting slack if problems are fixed.
On another note, just because there are hard economic times right now does NOT mean that we go writing more tickets than normal. Some small municipalities might do that, but not large cities....at least not SA. No one dictates how many tickets we write. I prefer warnings myself. However, if the driver fails to see their violation and fails to understand why they got pulled over...and they want to arguej and argue and argue...I'd be more than happy to scrap the warning and write the ticket so they can argue with me in front of a judge all day long while in court.
Just to clarify...not all cops are pricks. Have the wrong attitude and I'll guarantee you.....that officer will find as many tickets as he can...and believe me...it's easy to find infractions. Many people don't know all the laws. They don't know they can get cited for simple stuff like that thing hanging from the rear view mirror. We do this all day...every day... This is our job (to know the laws).
