What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Nebraska
I recently received a careless driving ticket and I am not really sure why. I was speeding yes but the cop just pulled me over without getting a radar read and didn't know how fast I was going. He said that I got too close behind someone before passing them and that he was going to give me a careless driving ticket. I have heard careless driving is a catch all ticket when they can't get you for anything else. I am a college kid and I won't be able to afford my skyrocketing insurance from this and I don't have an previous offenses. Careless driving is not eligible for stop class so I was wondering if there was any chance I could get this lowered to negligent driving so I can be eligible for stop class.
