Admitting guilt and not doing anything about it seems like the "i give up so bend me over and take a few thrusts" way or for someone who doesn't know how to battle the legal system

First you act all arrogant and tell him to pay and learn for next time and then you talk you you were unlucky by getting a ticket that didnt even include that you were drunk???
Drunk drivers FTL!!!! Too bad you didnt loose your license I would say!

if you can get lawyer for around 600 then do it, im sure he can negotiate with prosecutor to reduce the charge to speeding, lawyer can also reduce your fine. Think about it and decide what you want. when all things are done in court, you're looking to pay around 300-400 another 200 investment will get reckless off the record and trust me its good investment. you really dont have bad record in the eye of the judge and DA, if u get another one within 6-7years, you're looking at suspension. i know a good lawyer that might be able help you and possibly a payment plan, your case wont cost near 1000 bec. of your record, its an easy negotiation between the lawyer and prosecutor, you might get lucky enough to get it reduced to improper driving with the speed variance and your excuse. from my experience, reckless is really bad for your record, you can just pay for it save couple of hundred or let it haunt you in the next few years, even if you say that you'll drive carefully, anything can happen, getting reckless aren't just for speeding, va is retarded specially fairfax! goodluck! let me know if u need the #

You don't need a lawyer. Your good driving record should be enough to either
1. get the points taken off and you pay the ticket in full
2. or maybe get off with a warning if you have a nice judge. It's VA though so this probably won't be the case.
If I were you I'd go to court...first and foremost admit your guilt, then explain your story, and finally ask for option one.
