I'm a NC resident.
I just got a ticket for speeding (85 in a 65) on I-40 in North Carolina. On top of that he also cited me for tailgating. I got a ticket and a court date that that states that I must appear in District Court--the state trooper didn't even include a fine on the ticket. I plan to get a laywer but I'm nervous about what will happen to me. This is my 2nd speeding offense, my first one was for 89 in a 65, but it was reduce to 9 over the speed limit, 74 in a 65--I got that ticket in 2004. I got a warning last year and I got a ticket because I caused an accident. Does anyone know what I should expect when I go to court when I go? I've never been citated for tailgating before.
Is this a reckless ticket?
