Uh yeah...

I paid the minimum fine of $638, and one-month, suspended DL.

Good luck!
Yeah I minus well plead guilty. I got a ticket in So Cal 2 years ago for going 95 in a 65, so if the judge sees that I probably won't get cut much slack. The fine was $235 and I got to go to traffic school. Did your insurance go up? That's funny because when I told my girlfriend about the ticket she pretty much said the same thing. She said I should of told him that I was on my way to the grocery store to get ice cream because my wife is pregnant, LOL.

Update: I went to traffic court today and the judge cut everyone slack except me. I got fined $402, 2 points, and one month suspended license. Oh and then when I walked outside there was a $25 parking ticket on my car.

guru,
Sorry to hear the verdict. Is there any way you can appeal it? I think you might be able to ask for a retrial.
