I was issued a citation for going 15 mph in a 5 mph zone in my friend's boat (Code 655.2(a)). On the citation is said infraction but when I called the court they said it was a misdemeanor. My court date is set for 12/5. It was my first time taking the boat out (friend's boat) and my record is totally clean. I'm a medical student living in Boston and this happened in California.
Is there anything I can do to downgrade to an infraction? Hire a lawyer? Anything? Please help...this is the last thing I need before applying for residency
