fix-it ticket
Correctable equipment violation
A fix-it ticket is a traffic citation for a correctable violation—typically a broken taillight, expired registration, or cracked windshield.
Once you repair the problem and show proof to authorities, the ticket is dismissed or the fine reduced.
The term is mainly American: I got a fix-it ticket for my busted headlight.
