Traffic Court WTD? Updated post #35
with you not having had a ticket in 5 years I would see what the options are on taking the ticket (as in not fighting it) and then seeing if they will let you take a "drivers responsibility course" or what ever they call it in your state
I had that happen to me once where I was guilty as sin (not only of speeding and doing wheelies on my dirtbike on the city street but also of being dumb enough not to look over my shoulder to be sure the care behind me wasn't a clearly marked cruiser...which it was)
I hadn't had any tickets in a while and no points on my license
when I got the ticket in the mail it came with the "option" of enrolling in a one time course, which I could elect to pay a fee (think it was 80 dollars) and take the course online.
after the course there was an online exam and if I passed that no point would be added to my license
in this case I ended up paying the ticket, and the fee but not getting hit with the points and the higher insurance rates
