got a ticket tonight for doing 62 in a 45. it was 1am and on a long straight road in the middle of nowhere. i know cops are just doing there jobs and protecting the public but damn. its not like i was drunk, driving dangerously, street racing or anything reckless. just a bit tired and trying to get home a little quicker. im pissed because my insurance will go up and it might cause me to lose my job. im thinking of going to court hoping to get it dropped considering i think the consequences far outweigh the offense. i usually tell people to accept the consequences and give them a hard time for trying to get out of something they know they are guilty of, but i think i might any advice?

You don't need a lawyer. Contest the ticket and go to your court date. When you get there plead guilty and tell them your story in a polite manner, its was 1am, no prevous record, etc... Tell them you really don't want the points on your license and your willing to take some sort of defensive driving class or some other activity to make up for it. If you are honest and dress nice and since you have no previous record they will let you go with a slap on the wrist. I've seen that happen with several of my friends.
