| | | Inbox
Okay here it is - transcribed. Take a look at this
carefully and be prepared to ask yourself questions
about the language and implications. This might be
lengthy, but this is the information that was given to
MANY people this year who have been attending this
year's 2006 Rainbow Gathering in Routt County, CO.
Notice how this language is quite different than your
average traffic citation. It also implies that we MAY
have to return to Colorado at a future date if we
don't want to automatically accept our own verdict of
guilty by simply paying. There is also a certain
IMPLICATION OF GUILT automatically built in, making
appeals difficult and expensive. --- Again, take a
look at this carefully as all Rainbow folks should get
familiar with this latest language of citation.

Department of Motor Vehicles of your state. You may
be required to pay additional processing,
certification or other fees to reinstate your vehicle

scheduled for you, the United States District Court
may issue a summons order your appearance or issue a
warrent for your arrest. If you plead guilty to a
traffic violation, points may result in the suspension
of your driving priviledge. Furthermore, the court
may increase your fine or impose additional penalties.
Also, your driving priviledge may be suspended if you
plead guilty or are found guilty of certain offenses
under the vehicle code of your state. A driver's
education course may be an option to prevent
