A: OPen Container law is a violation. Depending on the court or agency, you may be able to plea bargain and depending upon the circumstances it is likely a relatively small fine. Talk to a local attorney to get more specific answers.
A: My learned colleagues are correct. My office, and many others, handle these matters effectively and efficiently. It's a much better use of your time to contact one of us directly (that way you can discuss particulars).
