what now?

so i was going to school this morning and at 7:41 i'm flagged down... the school cop waves me to the side cause i was going a whopping 39 in a 25 zone. turns out the cheap people who lived there complained that people were going too fast. everyone goes 40 on this side road. i just had some good luck. what should i do about it? 3 points, 118 bucks, 3rd ticket in 3 months of having my license. today is the day i can legally drive my siblings.

not much you can do really... you will probably get your license suspended over it now since its your 3rd ticket in 3 months.

yeah, insurance has to suck. Especially if you just got your liscence 3 months ago, ouch! I would take it easy for a while, like a year. Hopefully your under 18 cause if you are, when you turn 18 they wipe your record clean

Keep you head up

There is nothing you can do, I would take it like a man with my head up. It happens, next time drive by slow in 1st gear at 9000 at 7:40Am I'm sure the neighbors would appreshate it.
