I thought this might be handy for some of you that wander onto the site with questions about what your bail might be for various violations in California. I've trimmed it down to Vehicle Code violations, since that is what this site is all about. However I have bails (fines) for many other violations and codes as well, for the asking.
This schedule should be used with some minor amount of caution, however and should not be treated as gospel. For example your violation MAY NOT be a "fix-it" ticket as the officer tells you. There are some equipment violations that carry a fine. Also, if you have priors there may be a $10 enhancement. The purpose of this schedule is to give you an APPROXIMATE idea of what to expect. Call the respective court for the exact amount.

California Bail Schedule
California has a 170% penalty assessm
ent on our fines. Essentially, tack on $17 for every $10 in fine amount. For example, your $100 fine will actually cost you $270. This is a bit excessive in MY book, but I don't make the rules, folks. I just pass them on.
WHEW! This was more cumbersome than I thought. I'm taking the easy way out here. If you want to know a fine amount, send me an E-mail. I'll tell you your fine or provide you with a list via E-mail
