Of course I am not. They aren't going to actually win, I will make sure of that. I just can't believe that they charge traffic as a criminal offense. Most states got smart a long time ago and made traffic violations civil affairs not punishable by any jail time, that way you lose most of your rights (the right to a trial by jury, namely) and the standard of evidence gets downgraded from "guilty beyond a reasonable doubt" to "guilty by a preponderance of the evidence", and the burden of proof switches from the Plaintiff/State to the Defendant.
