A: Bite the bullet and hire a local traffic attorney. You don't need F. Lee Bailey for a traffic ticket - not even for 30+ over & C&R. So just pick the cheapest attorney out of the many solicitation letters you received and roll with that. Oh, and stop speeding! Even if your speedometer was completely broken, at 30+ over - you knew you were going too fast.
