Default pulled over for tints...but cops took my ID?!

alright, so i got pulled over for having front tints. i dont care. but whats wierd is, the cop didnt give me back my drivers license id. he was really nice and lenant, and he just gave me a ticket for which i have two options. pay it off or take the tints off and go to court and they'll rip the ticket up.

was he suppose to keep my id? or did he just forget to give it back?

Just like any other stop, the police officer should've given it back. Call the station and ask for your ID back.

Yeah, its a fix-it ticket, so I've heard. Just take off the tint. Meanwhile, get your license back.

Did he mention keeping the ID? If not, there's a good chance it was an honest mistake.

I had something simliar happen to me. Cop almost drove away with my motorcycle keys. I had to get off the bike and wave her down before she realized she still had my keys.

Just call up the court and ask for the officer that gave you the ticket and tell them the situation, should be able to have it avalible for pick up or they could mail it to you.

Why It Dont Show The Price Is For The Option You Remove The Tint You Pay Nothing If The Keep The Tint You Have To Go To Court And Pay The Ticket And Court Cost But This Might Not Be Fully True It Real Depends On The Place And State Your Got it Best If You Call The Clerk At The Count House And Ask o And Call The Cop Shop And Tell Them That The Cop Didnt Give You Back The License An d They More Than Likely Have It There...

lol obviously u guys dont get pulled over much. u get ur license bak when u pay the ticket via mail or u get it bak in court. id go 2 court they drop tint tickets so fast. just have a fake reciept that u took the tins off or take a pic of another car with no tints.
