I got some more info. The boy was not speeding, no failure to yield no moving violation of any kind. The street that he cut through on apparently has a small sign that says you cannot cut though. This is a public road paid for by tax payer money but apparently in TX if you get enough people to complain that people from the school across the street are cutting through your neighborhood you can get a sign put up to prevent people from driving on a public road and you will get a ticket for $369.

My ticket for driving 15mph over the limit was only $160 and I could get deferred adjudication for the ticket with no points. In Mansfield you must pay this ticket in full and you can try to fight it afterwards. The kid will have to go to drivers ed to prevent the points from going on his record. The folks are pretty well off so they are going to get a lawyer and see if they can fight it.

I think that is a complete BS ticket. The fact that a community can prevent people from driving down a public road is just insane. You moved near a school, what did you think was going to happen?
