The Texas legislature introduced a bill this week that would allow cops to collect immediate payment for minor traffic offenses with a credit or debit card.
This completely circumvents the rule of law as citizens’ due process rights will be forfeited by pressure from police officers. The power this gives police will certainly cause an increase in abuse of citizens by law enforcement.

against due process, it must be voted by the people, and I know it will not pass!!!
There won’t be any corruption paying the cops!! LOL

$#%&!@*em!
Some people live pay check to pay check . And they may not have the money on the spot . Plus taking your right away from a far trail . And to be heard . Not a good idea going to put more hardship some people.
What happened to due process and the right to a fair trial? Texas, you’re tough on the immigrants, which I’m thankful for but, this just takes the cake. Seems to me there will be much more traffic violations than ever before if collected on the spot.
If it saves money and you could appeal it may be ok for those who are prepared
I guess I’m going to be leaving Texas
CAN YOU SMELL THE CORRUPTION ???
no JUDGE ?
