Q: I got pulled over for going 76 in a 45 and revived a ticket. This is the first time I have been pulled over.
I am 18 years old this is the first time I have been pulled over I was nice to the cop he did not ask any questions after I handed him my information he just came back with a ticket explained it and left. If i plead not guilty would the judge reduce my speed so I would not receive points on my license or reduce the amount and for my insurance rates to not raise?
A:
Go to the website for the County Court in which you were issued the ticket. See what the bail is. You probably have at least 1 point on your record and your insurance can go up by $80 per month. Google search for a traffic ticket attorney in your area to assist you to get the fine reduced and the count lower.
You need to pay close attention to your speed, the 45 speed limit is in a zone where there is cross traffic and driveways, for safety reasons. 76mps is for limited access roads with no cross traffic. This is because people die in collisions at 76 mph, it could by you, your friends or your family. Drive carefully, it is very dangerous out there.
