Default Seeking advice on handling a reckless driving ticket after being pulled over for

HAIII..
I recently got pulled over for speeding, going 12 over the limit on a four-lane road. What makes matters worse is that immediately after, I got pulled over by the same cop for unintentionally spinning gravel towards him. Now I have a speeding ticket and a reckless driving ticket. I suspect that the cop gave me the reckless driving ticket out of spite. While I know I can't do anything about the speeding ticket, I'm looking for advice on how to handle the reckless driving ticket. Please give me any suggestions.
Thank You.NJMCDirect is an online ticket payment portal that helps to make the ticket payment to Municipal Court of New Jersey by logging on to www njmc.direct com

Call a criminal attorney that handles traffic violations. It will cost more up front, but it will be cheaper in the long run to keep points off your license and stop your insurance rates from going up. You can probably get the reckless thrown out (if your story is true) and the speeding ticket reduced to 9 over or possible PJC if your jurisdiction does that (depending on your driving record).

Ah yes, I see that now.

Curious how many of his fellow countrymen will chime in to let him know how to handle a speeding ticket.

Other than following the Super Troopers approach...

The speeding ticket is what it is, but the reckless driving ticket feels excessive for kicking up some gravel unintentionally. I'll explore options for potentially getting that one reduced.

Hi, apart from paying the ticket there is nothing to do.
