If you junk the car and show proof of that they often will throw the ticket out with court costs.

The car belongs to me, not the judge or the state. I’d rather pay the 90$ and fix my car when I can afford it.

Then stop driving it until you fix it. Police departments have the discretion to tow the car, next time it might be a pricier than just a ticket. If you don’t show up they will default you and you just owe what you owe plus court costs…not sure if that will eventually impact your license too but that’s the risk you run
