What is the name of your state? VA
Would really appreciate some advice on what to realistically expect on court date/penalty.
Got a reckless driving speeding ticket this morning while driving to work, for doing 72 in a 50 on the beltway(55 is normal speed limit, but was reduced in this part for some reason) in Northern VA. To make matters worse, realized registration had expired about 20 days ago and got a ticket for expired registration. We have another car that we recieved the renewal in the mail but never did for this car, so did not realize it was also expired(reason for not renewing - fyi). Took action right away and renewed registration after getting to work today until 2008, but it's after the fact.
Looking at attorney options for mandatory court date in a couple of months. How much are attorney fees for something like this?
Also, when all said and done...how much $$ and points could one be looking at? Driver's license history is pretty clear(maybe a parking tix, etc).
