got arrested for the first time tonight

So stupid i always disliked the law and now i dislike it far more. I was driving to my gf's house (literally two miles away in distance). Turned right from a one lane road to a two lane road, my turn after is like maybe 300 feet away so i skipped the first lane. I do this all the time and see lots of people do it. Bam pulled over. I get nervous when i get pulled over so my hands were shaking a little cop thought i was under the influence of something gave me a sobriety test. I Failed somehow and he searched my car finding my weed stash which had less than 3 grams.

I get arrested because of that and possible dui. I passed the doctors test at the jail but still got slammed with two tickets. one for the traffic violation 300$. the other for possesion of weed 1000$. My car got towed so all in all i owe 1500$. wtf?

I dont sell (never did) , i dont steal, dont do anything i would consider bad especially in the eyes of the law. Why must good people get in trouble for something so small and have to pay big? I mean if i sold drugs i would understand but no.. What you guys think?

If BRIEF had his way, you would be crucified to a cross and have more nails driven into you than Jesus Christ himself....(and if you were black it would be even worse)!

You could have kept that down to the tow bill if you knew your rights.

You had the right to refuse that breathalyser.

You had the right to refuse your car being searched.

The $1300 in violation fines you owe because you are ignorant of your own rights.

Sorry sweetie it don't work that way....
once he committed the crime(driving offense) they had "probable cause".....

The probable cause was his nervousness. But he could have refused everything and they would have had to get a judge to issue a search warrant for the car, usually that's the case but states are different. If it was like 2am in the morning would the officers want to wake the Judge up for a marijuana suspect.

Lots of mixxed messages here ha, im owning up that this is my fault. I am not saying its not caused by me which it was. This is a ridiculous situation and now im going to be broke, with 2 more things on my record..

Since i failed the sobriety test they were going to search my car anyways so i thought if i told the truth i would get cut some slack especially since i only had 1-3 grams of weed. I had it in a pill bottle that is air tight.

If you have any amount under the felony charge it all counts the same way which is possession and is 1000.

1000 fine for having 20$ of pot? To say the lease they took it also.

My court date is april first, any advice on what i can do? Should i fight it or plead guilty?
