William,
You have serious problems! I go 80 all the time...no, wait, I take that
back..I go 80 when I slow down. You need to keep a more watchful eye. I
would suggest you tell the judge, either on the first one or the second one
that you now have two fine yellow pieces of paper and could he please have
mercy on you and let you take two traffic schools. If the judge got some
the night before you might get away with an 8-hour session and a 12-hour
session. If he didn't get any.....good luck. The insurance rates are the
highest over the next 37 months beginning on your next renewal. Then they
slowly drop down. You really better be careful. One more in the next 4
months and you won't need to worry about driving for awhile. Or maybe you
can get Ed's help....Hey Ed, what do you think?

Subject: DML: Ticket Woes! Advice Needed!
2 weeks ago, I was traveling on the I-5, going 80/65. Flat stretch of
freeway, and definately the speed of traffic! I was livid, cause there were
cars still passing me!
I had the pleasure of recieving a ticket back in April. This one was TOTALLY
my fault, out of stupidity. I am in no way going to question the officer, no
way, no how, as I was in the wrong!
I can take traffic school on the first ticket. Now, I haven't paid that
ticket yet, as I recieved an extension. The second ticket came and said I
could take traffic school as well, because I haven't registered for traffic
school on the first ticket yet.
So, should I register for traffic school on both tickets? Has anyone done
this, and will it work?
I was thinking of going in on the second ticket and pleading "guilty", and
explain to the judge that I was going over the posted speed limit, but that
it was a safe speed, due to the road conditions (Dry and clear), as well the
flow of traffic, and a lesser speed could have been a hazard to myself and
others around me? What's the best thing I should do here?
I appreciate all your help!
