This does not sound right. Call the clerk and request to speak with the supervisor for a better answer. It sounds like you are eligible for traffic...

What to do?

Get an attorney on NV or CA - whichever state he was cited.

Be patient- you have to be properly served and they have to get a copy of your license. Good case to fight with an attorney!

Santa Barbara traffic division has been closed since the beginning of the covid virus- a year ago. They can continue your due date!

Can i get my car back or will it be taken for 30 days?

You can get the car released to you as you are the registered owner. You need to get a release slip from the impound agency and then pay tow yard...

Can I fight this ticket and do I? If I do or don't fight it what can I expect to happen/pay and can I take a class?

You received a pacing ticket. You can pay it and take traffic school or fight it. If you get an attorney you will never have to appear.

You should still file SR1 . Hopefully you had insurance. That is really what the DMV is concerned with

Doubtful you will get any refund of traffic school fee. Try calling collections at the court

Who did you sign up with to do traffic school with this company? They probably never got paid!
