im sure it's more than $1000. not having insurance at all is $700+. However, insurance violations is ALWAYS correctable, as long as it wasn't during an accident.

Luck - When preparation and opportunity come together.

Bad Luck - when failure to prepare and disaster come together.

Sorry for your problems. Sounds like you need to focus on luck, not bad luck.

Sorry to hear of your 'problems', but not having a valid license or insurance documents is plain negligence on your part. It's not the cops fault. And although you didn't mention getting pinched for having 5% tint all around, it is plain dumb. Regardless of what others say tint that dark is not smart and is not safe. At your age you can't afford these kinds of mistakes as the subsequent insurance increases will kill you. Slow down, mod your car carefully and legally, and keep your documents current.

yea well tint tickets are only $10 in cali so i dont really care about fix-it tickets. the licence and no proof is my fault i know. but watever, its in the past now. exhaust ticket it like 200 since they got rid of the state refs. insurance can go both ways with the fines but we will see. my car isnt even heavily moded. just exhaust, smoked tails and tinted window. my friend has an sti that is extremely heavily moded and got pulled only for his plates lol. talk about luck.

My tint ticket was $133..cause the CHP in his little bad-*** camaro felt like bein' a **** that day..he marked it as a non-correctable so I didn't even have to remove the tint, just had to pay the fine. Took the front tints off anyway just 'cause I've been pulled over way too many times in the past couple years and frankly, I'm just sick of it all..good luck man, hope it doesn't rape your wallet TOO bad in the end.

Sorry about your luck.
