i got caught doing 96 on a 65 zone goin to school. the officer was nice and let me off cause i told him i was late for a final.

i would write a "trail by written decleration" (sp). not sure if u have it in ur state but in CA, u can always just contest to it by letter. IF u lose u can always request a new trial (trial de novo) and show up to court, this gives u 2 chances of winning. and if worst comes to worst, u can beg for traffic school.
