What is the name of your state? Georgia

Hey everyone, thanks ahead of time for any advice. I recieved a speeding ticket on my motorcycle for going 73 mph in a 45 mph zone, on Oct. 20th, 2005. At the time of the citation, I was 18 years old (I turned 19 in November). I take full responsibility for the ticket, and I am pleading guilty. However, I am very worried about any suspensions that may be a result of this ticket. I am also unsure if the suspension would count for just my motorcycle endorsment, or my automobile license as well. I'm hoping that the judge will see that I have a completely clean record, and that I am an honor roll student in college, and have sympathy on me. Do any of yall have experience with my kind of situation?

As I said, thanks ahead of time for any help

If you take full responsibility, good for you. The judge may be lenient to give you lesser offense, make sure you ask for reduction to less than 4 points to avoid suspension, for example exceeding the speed limit by 19 but less than 24 miles per hour - 3 points. You are not that far off.

Okay, thanks for the advice. What are the odds that he'd give me some kind of defensive driving course to take?
