Fake ID Crisis - PLEASE HELP
Over the holiday break i was driving down to southern California and was pulled over for a speeding ticket. The citing officer noticed a extra ID card in my wallet and took it. I was given a speeding ticket and a misdemeanor for possession of a fraudulent drivers license (14610 (A)(i) VC - 'Possession of fraudulent drivers license'). The officer said that I can be punished with up to one year in jail and a fine of no more than $1,000. Fortunately, the ID had all my real info on it, which prevented my from a felon charge; however, the age was false. (I'm 19 and the fake ID said I was 23). Also, I have read several other posts regarding fake identification and it seems most people are getting cited with "B+P Fake Identification" whereas I am getting cited with "VC Fraudulent Drivers License", why is that?
So I wasn't using the ID, the fake identification that I had was of Horrible (you could see through it...it was basically paper that was laminated), and I had no intent of using it. What's going to happen? Do cases like these result in jail time? Is there anything I can do? I appreciate any help, tips, past experiences, Thanks!!
