Should I get an Attorney?

The hose wasvleaking and one was worn thru the outer layer, why would hire a lawyer ????

 

Is that something specific to TX? Because in MA they sure as hell do!

 

And to top it off, the officer made you drive illegally. Log book and drivers license are required to be in your posession while operating a truck. Even if it is just to go to a parking lot.

 

It may show on his Criminal Record same as seatbelt tickets do since it's not a moving violation. I would call up DOT and just ask

 

I'm learning a lot about other states on this one, Seatbelt tickets on a Criminal Record? WTF? I'm gonna have to start a database on places to never go.

 

yeah it has to fall somewhere and it isn't a moving violation that costs any points so if falls on the CR

 

In Texas, they DO issue points for a seatbelt ticket...and I wouldn't be surprised if there are others, too.

 

Wow things are getting tough out there sounds like revenue raising to me i mean why not just give you a notice to fix it? Things happen to trucks and Trailers in transit and the police should be a bit more understanding on the matter. Unless there's more to this story than your letting on?
