A man who tried to get even by paying a traffic ticket with $120 in pennies got upstaged by a North Dakota judge who made him stay until they were counted.
Robert John Zukowski brought a garbage can full of about 12,000 pennies to Clay County District Court to pay his fine for speeding, the Fargo Forum reported. Court Administrator Jan Crossette lugged the bucket of change to a bank, which used a machine to count the money and gave her $120 in bills.
Zukowski got a few pennies back in overpayment.
Judge John Pearson told the newspaper he thought Zukowski's anger was misdirected.
"If the person is mad at the cop, why take it out on court administration?" Pearson asked. "They're punishing the wrong people."

when they started taking video speeding tickets and red light tickets, (i got a speeding one, nice picture of me driving)

a guy got his picture in the mail with a ticket like i did, he thought hed be a smart ass and send a picture of his fine money back....well the cops still keeping the sense of humor yet staying serious.....sent the man another photo.....just a set of handcuffs.....

Lesson learned

I used to work at a video store, and they charged me late fees for movies when I was in the hospital with a threatened miscarriage with my youngest daughter. A few weeks later I got a better job and dumped the late fee..in pennies..in the night drop, on a night when I knew the bitch ass owner would be opening the next day.
