Im still paying for my mistake almost 3 years ago. I got 2 tickets in one night, but AZ has this new law that says if you get 2 tickets under the age of 18 your license is automatically suspended for 3 months. My insurance is and has been for the past 3 years $390 a month. It should go down in a few months when it will be 36 months from the tickets, and then again in oct when i turn 21

Thats crazy, 390 US a month that must be a killer. I guess they're pretty strict with the laws over there. Im trying to be more of a careful driver now after getting my first ticket, it sucks if it stays on my record. I know theres somethin here that you can do to clear your record, do you know what im talkin about. maybe you dont have it there.

ok i have posted many law lessons before , i live in canada and its a bit different here but maybe it will help. you can delay the innevitable by pleading not guilty and post ponning court dates but your best bet is to go get a copy of the report from the cop station. this is different from the ticket. this is a write up that the cop did after he gave you the ticket. you will then proceed to a reputable lawyers office none of that b.s. you see on tv where it says "you dont pay unless you win" those are law school drop out lwyers who dont know "actus reus" from "mens rea" sorry law joke. you will pay the attourney a one hour fee to review the ticket and tell you your chances of winning the case. there are a million ways to get out of a speeding ticket this i promise you. if you dont mind a bit of reading you can go to the library and take out the traffic code book in your state and read it carefully. cops dont want you to know that you can get out of any ticket. and i mean any ticket. what you will want to do is cause any reasonable doubt that you did not commin the act. the judge will have nochoice but to let you off the hook if he believs that there is a 0.000000000000000000000001% chance that you are right.
please pm me if you have any concerns

I got a ticket for 80mph in a 40. I went to court to enter my plea and asked the judge for traffic school. He granted my request and cut my fine in half. Your Milage May Vary.
