I was ticketed on the I-5 westbound in San Diego county. I was driving on my Indian (Foreign) license as I am a student at USC and I am on my foreign student (F1) visa. The officer did not accept my indian license and told me he would tow my rental car if I cannot provide my International license. I did show my Intl license but it had expired about a month ago. He then issued a misdemeanor for driving without a US license and needless to say, a speeding ticket too.
My court date is in a week and I am unsure what to tell the judge. I have taken steps to get a California DL by passing my written test. What should I tell the judge? What punishment am I looking at?
I would appreciate any sort of help.
