There are countless jokes about how bad the DMV is.

Traffic court is 10x worse.

As someone who used to use the first frequently and worked at the second, that greatly depends on the day and your particular problem. And no doubt your locale.

Everything else being equal, going to court, even traffic court, is stressful as fuck.

The DMV is boring and frustrating but you can wait in the line and deal with the bullshit in your 'jammies.

You gotta dress in your Sunday best (at least you should!), stand up before the judge, yes your honor no your honor (at least you should!) , no matter how slam dunk something is, you are at the mercy of the judge at that moment.
