I don't know how it works in US, but In Spain I can confirm that fines can be appealed and each "trafic fine proposal" by police is sent and verified/rejected by an external team of civil servants expert in driving-related laws.
At least the petty crimes and infractions (I assume that the really bad cases go directly to a judge)
I suppose that most countries in Europe have implemented a similar system.
- justin66 6y agoI was making a bit of a joke. The judiciary in the United States is the "uninvolved third party should decide if they take the person's stuff," and it's quite a violation of the operating principles of our government that civil asset forfeiture bypasses the judiciary in many places and is allowed to proceed under the law without a court hearing.
