Actually, US law states that as long as you attempt to pay an outstanding debt with any kind of legal currency, it has to be accepted or they are technically absolving you of your debt. So you were illegally arrested.

Yeah but pennies are still perfectly legal tender so they technically were supposed to accept it

wow. great revenge.

haha since when is it illegal to pay with pennies?

i took $20 worth of nickels and dimes into the PD to pay my parking ticket a couple months ago. the bitch behind the desk told me if i am paying with that, that i need to count it out and stack them in $1 stacks. i played it off like i was an idiot and told her i dont know how to count. she told me to take my change and go to the bank and get a $20.

Why did you get a ticket?! That wasn't fair. It is legal tender and they have to accept it no matter what form it's in. I had a teacher who was in the same situation and did the same thing and they had to accept it!! They just wanted to make money!

Ppl r idiots these days I'd do the same thing just for the fun of it.Wut is everyone gonna follow the law and do Wut there told to do. That's not how jive my life.ppl go out and do stupid stuff like this and have fun.b4 a nuke drops on r heads

you deserve it for being completely immature.

Pay the citation in euros

Wow, another one of those douchebags who think it's a hilarious to pay a $100 fine in pennies...
