Wow, sorry to hear that. The local law enforcement folks out here in the tobacco fields of North Carolina are pretty reasonable. I once had my wife tow my van home with a 100' nylon rope, her driving ahead, and me in the towed van, steering. I chuckled about how when I lived in Bethesda MD, I'd probably be put in jail for that.
Maybe you can go to court, plead guilty, and explain that you really were trying to do the right thing. That sort of thing used to work pretty well for me in MD.
