The lawyer reschedules it (sometimes multiple times), the cop doesn't show up on the new date, the judge throws it out. Sometimes it works. Other times my lawyer got them to agree to let me take defensive driving when I otherwise couldn't. Mine charges whatever the ticket would have cost me. If you've got a clean driving record you can sometimes talk the judge into it yourself. Wear a suit.

Hmm that makes sense. I've had 2 other citations in the past 5 years but all got dismissed due to Defensive Driving so I guess my record is clean? Idk if it still shows up that I have those on record or not. Hopefully not though. And will do. My court date is March 6th or 8th but I'm going to the court Monday morning to see if I can just try to get away with taking Defensive Driving and if not just that I'll do probation. I'll dress a little more business casual with that

And also thanks for all the help Chuck. I really appreciate it. Helps alot when not alot of people are encouraging about it just telling me I'm pretty much screwed. I like to think there might be a bit of light at the end of the tunnel haha

Now days around here over 95 in a 65 could land you in Jail...And that is only 30 over...

80mph or faster or 20mph over (whichever comes first) is criminal in these parts and will land you in jail.

Though, we have 75mph speed limits just outside of town. I've not heard how this affects that (since it's okay to go ~9 over without being ticketed most of the time).

All in all, it depends on the situation and the officer. Some are complete dicks (like my friends Dad) and others are the nicest people in the world.
