Asked in Traffic Tickets for Louisiana

Q: I got a ticket a month ago for 12 miles over limit but got one for 23 mph over today! first ones! File article 894??

Was running late for work, I know it's not an excuse though. Single father supporting 2 kids and ins mo premium already 180... jumped up 33% when I renewed. No previous violations and can't afford ins increase. Would article 894 help?
