 If the officer doesn't show, the case gets dismissed, then as far as your driver's license is concerned, you are good to go. That happened to more than 2,200 drivers and they were let back on the road. I get angry, I'm pissed, but the bottom line is I think I'm disgusted with the system that fails the community. Because this is a system. Those officers work for someone. They work for me as a taxpayer.
