A: Yes, that will protect your license. You must have a parent or guardian with you in court and will be required to take a safe driving course.

A: You will want to get court supervision or a dismissal on one or both tickets to avoid a license suspension. As Mr. Harvatin pointed out, you will be required to complete a traffic safety course if you receive court supervision.
