{"replyTo":"","text":"It's election season, and we have the power of social media. Call the DA in that area and ask, in a charming manner, if he will drop the charge. You may need to come up with some quazi compelling reasons for asking, but what do you have to lose in simply asking? Were there any signs posted? Was the truck stop filled up? Will you let everyone know to avoid making the same mistake? These things can be talked through in a personable and respectful fashion. \n\nHey, it's worked for me before in a small town in NC. As a matter of fact, it was the officer whom I was trying to talk out of writing me the ticket who gave me the advice 🙃","replyToPid":0}
