There is a loser in every crowd , when you present your documents at the clerks office they will dismiss for a small admin fee (used to be $7.50 in the county where I worked for 12 years).
And if the temp tag you were issued was still valid and you had insurance on the truck then you could not have went to jail , and if you had went it would be your lucky day, ie you hit the law suit lottery ....
