Default Going to court on Friday

I guess I would like serious/helpful responses, but feel free to crack jokes/laugh at my lameness/misfourtune/over use of the virgule.

So I bought a 'moped' online because I thought it looked cool for a moped and had power speed and good gas efficiency. Turns out it wasn't really a moped, it was a scooter/motorcycle since it has 150cc. I drove it unlicenced, unregistered and uninsured for about two months.

Then I got in an accident. I was the only one hurt, but a 'helpful' observer called 911 immediately. EMS came, police came, I was busted (but not badly hurt). So I got a ticket for the following:

Delinquent motor vehicle tax
No certificate of inspection
No certificate of registration
No motorcycle/motor scooter insurence policy

I don't know why nothing is mentioned about not having a licence. An officer said something about that at the time. I thought he asked for the ticket back to add it, but it isn't here.

Mostly what I want to know is what to expect in court and what penalties am I looking at. I'm a first timer. This is in Hawaii.

How F'd am I?

Feel free to ask more questions.

You are going to court on Friday, and you decide to do research about it today?

No health insurance either, right? Good thing you live in a socialist state.

Unless you have a crapload of unpaid fines-warrants something like that, 99.99% sure no jail, unless you piss of the judge and call him a fat lazy bastard, you'll be fine. You'll just have alot of fines, depends on the state/county/city

Whew, thanks for mentioning the fat lazy bastard thing. I was totally going to do that. Bye-Bye bankroll. I hope it's under a grand.
