    thats what my cuz thought about going 80 in a 55 in gwinnett and he is 16. the judge moved his case to oglethorpe county for the sentencing phase but she recommended suspended license. and a 100 something fee just for the court fee. not including the actual find.

    When i was 18, i got 31 over. The judge droped the ticket, i had to take one day school class and no points. This was in dekalb, when you walk in, the judge will ask if there is anyone here under 21. You being under 21, she might give you a chance like she gave me, but still ur shit is way more than 31 over buddy.

    If he is super lucky, maybe the judge might drop it. Chances of that happening is very very slim. Seriously, your pretty screwed. Plead NOLO....Bout the only other thing you can do. My luck, I would have went to jail, car impounded, big fine, and everything else that they could throw at me.

    You're likely to lose your license. A lot of times now they're actually more harsh with the first offense...especially when your not-too-sharp friend is hauling balls like that.

    Not saying I haven't done it too....just don't get caught. lol Good luck in any case.

    Are u sure bout that one I was pulled over twice in GA for a 101 in a 55 and a 100 in a 45. I never had a suspended license because of that. Unless I answer my own question by telling u guys I was not a GA resident. But I was simply sent to that class (in DeKalb county.) With only a small fine in comparison to what I would of paid.

    lol i got a 97 in a 70 when i lived in sc and nothing happened to my license, hell as a matter or fact i got it reduced to less than 10 under and 75 bucks. i think ga is one of the strictest states when it comes to speeding. i never heard half the shit about fines and punishments about speeding until i cam here.

    yeah that license is gone! you can do ahead and call the solicitor after 2 weeks once they process the ticket and they are just going to tell you to go ahead and turn in your lisence and start counting days early!

    a good friend of mine got caught for 105 in a 65 on his bike and was given a ticket for reckless driving, arrested, bike impounded. He went to court a month or so later and got 96 hours in county spread out over 2 weekends (had to report at 7pm friday night and was released at 7pm sunday night), almost 1k in fines, and license suspended until he was 21. He was also 19, but his ticket was from fulton county.

    He has to take a defensive driving class BEFORE his court date, that way he will not have any points put on his record, and unless the judge suspends his license in court the DMV will not suspend his license if no points are put on the record. Plus he will get a 20% reduction in his fine. Remember the Defensive Driving class must be done BEFORE the court date. Its the only way, because the way the system works is that anyone under 21 who receives 4+ points for a single citation on will have their license suspended for 6months. Hope that helps.

    If your friend wishes to beat it, he has 2 things to do.
    1) Take a defense driving course before court date. This does not guarantee that the judge will be any more lienient, but it cannot hurt. If nothing else, it will take 7 pts off his record.
    2) Get a lawyer IF he wishes to keep his license. A jugde does not have to accept a NOLO plea. If he does not accept your friend's plea, then it will be his word against the cop's. Think about this, the judge works with the cop and the solicitor every day. Who do you think that he will side with? A lawyer is his best option.

    I hope you serve time. You deserve it. And to have your license taken away for a while. Fuck your "lifestyle." You should have thought of that before idiocy set in. Later, QD.

    I don't get why people ask for "advice" on speeding tickets and other citations on here anyway. No one will get the same treatment for the citation. You can post up what the law says or what happened to you or a friend of yours, but it is whatever modd the judge is in and where you're at and all other things considered in the decision. Later, QD.

    my friend was busted going about 125 in a 65.

    had a good lawyer and still came out with $1000 in fees but only lost license for 6 months. No jail time or car impounded. That was with a lawyer, sucks if you don't have one
