Got my first ticket today
Just curious how I get rid of it? Never had a ticket before. It was for a 48 in a 30(school zone) and no proof of insurance but I don't think he wrote school zone on there. I can't believe I was going that fast since I barely romped on it but I am not complaining since I should have gotten 4 more tickets on top of that.
I should be able to take defensive driving right? I am 17 if age matters but it was under 20 over.
The cop was a pretty cool guy, I was pissed about something so I got sideways leaving the parking lot and barely tapped second leaving school. He saw everything but just got me for 18 over.
My friend said have it deferred or something. He has memorized the defensive driving questions so if I can do that it would be great. I don't mind paying a fine but I am proud of my driving record and don't want a ticket on there.

The speeding ticket just take defensive driving, and the insurance you will have to get it deferred if you dont want it on your record, or just take the proof of insurance and it should be dismissed.

I looked on the ticket and it only says "fines doubled" under construction but it is checked for the school zone. That would be my luck though. So do I just call the number and ask for defensive driving?
I don't mind paying a couple fees because it was entirely my fault, yet I don't it on my record because my insurance is enough as it is.
And Kp483, I think it had more to do with being *** end WOT around a turn haha. I don't know how true the stories about the motorcycle cops are but apparently I am very lucky. I left my windows down at school so my interior got wet and I was letting off some steam.

Just go to court .. plea not guilt or no contest to see the judge. Ask him for defensive driving. DO NOT PLEA GUILTY!!! you have points to worry about now.
You don't want your insurance to go up then listen to me.

Too bad I can't read the God damn court date. I think it says the 28th which means now I have to tell my mom since it's a school day. I don't think she will care but I just rather her not know, she will probably get mad because I have to miss school which is a big thing to her.
And thanks, you guys are awesome. I had no clue what to do lol.

^^^^ that might be the stupidest **** i have ever heard, BUT, i will admit, it's the easiest and most painless.......
fail to appear
let it go to a warrant.
show up to Pearland PD and turn yourself in
get booked
talk to the judge in the morning and get set free.
p.s.
have a friend drop you off on a Friday afternoon. you'll be out by Saturday afternoon.

Alright sounds good. Do I just show up to the court or do I call the number first?

Also let the court know about your school some can make it later in the aftenoon so you don't miss school.
