Please answer if you KNOW what you are talking about.. I got a ticket for going 75 in a 45.. my first ticket ever. It says I cant go to traffic school and is a $463 ticket. I am goin to appeal for traffic school. 3 days later I got a ticket for "unsafe speed" took a turn at 3o that cop says should be at 10mph. This one was complete bullshit, 30 is perfectly fine for that turn. He said I would lose my license for the second ticket alone. Is he right? I am 17 and those are my only 2 tickets

If it says "Unsafe speed" does that mean its reckless driving? Or does it have to say reckless driving on it?

go talk to the prosecutor and dont be defensive. If you go in trying to get out of it and your defending what you did you will get nowhere.



Admit your wrong, but the bullet and you should be ok. But its going to cost $$$

In Colo, at 17, you only have 4 points. The 30 over I think is worth 6 points. Dont know about Cali though.



Good Luck

Don't talk to anyone. Hire an attorney that has a relationship with the ADA your case was assigned to and have them do the talking.

the 20 over you should be able to go to traffic school for, but then just be extra careful not to get anoher ticket, cause if you get another one youll get your lisence suspended. and also, your insurance is also fucked.
