i got one for doing 89 in a 65, paid it on my iPhone right in front of the officer, 230 with a 20 dollar service charge to pay in on the net. I would have taken a DD class, but since I didn't have a TX liscense yet they were going to keep my out of state liscense until I paid it or took the class and was not about to go with out any ID when I was going out to have fun in a college town.

If it's your first ticket for 11 over it's not a big deal, try and see if you can get it reduced to general speeding then it won't even matter if insurance does see it. I would just take the DD class and be done with it, online is easy!

What works like a champ to keep from getting tickets is to not speed. Last speeding ticket I got was for 135 in a 20 about 10 years ago in hs. Had a brand new 99ss with some goodies from mti and showing off to my friends in front of the high school late at night after a late practice. Ended up paying around 500 and 80 hrs of community service and it was off my record.

I got a 51 in a 35 today. I usually just take these to a lawyer. $50 to have them take care of it. I have yet to hear back about a ticket that my lawyer took care of (and it's been 4 years).
