What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? CA
I was given a ticket under 22348(b) for exceeding 100 mph (cited at 103 mph) at 12:35 in the morning. Traffic was going at a speed of around 85 (even though this is not a defense) since there were not a lot of cars on the road and although I was always aware of my speed to keep it under 100, I don't think I was wrongly cited since the I-5 has some downward sloping hills.
This is my first offense and I have no citations on my drivers license. I don't know what I should do. I heard you can go to court and plead guilty to a lesser charge which I have no problem doing. I just don't want this two point offense on my record because I'm a student and can't afford my insurance going up any higher. I don't want to go to trial or protest the ticket or anything, but was wondering if there was a way to go down to a lesser charge where I could do traffic school and have it removed from my record. Any suggestions? What should I say or do?
Thanks,
