That's great.
Pay it and keep on driving. As long as the small print doesn't say "and must also be signed off by a referee station".
he said in the op that the cop wrote on the ticket that it had to be taken to a smog referee station.
you best double check that. when the cop says it has to go to a referee it is highly unlikely that a judge will say no it don't and just give you the fine. not saying it can't happen I am saying with kommiefornia I would double check it before deciding to ignore it.Nope no small print or mention of a smog ref anywhere. Like you said I'm just gonna pay it off and forget about it, thats all I wanted from the beginning lol
