Take a defensive driving course BEFORE your court date. I got a 29 over in DeKalb county (merging onto 285...does anybody go 55 on 285?), and taking a defensive driving course got me off with zero points on license and a $230 fine. You've got more prior tickets than I did, but I think that'd be your best bet. It'll very nearly always save your license if that's the biggest thing you're worried about.

But then again, it's also county dependant. DeKalb just wants to get your money and then put you back out on the roads so they can stop you again (which is fine, really). But I don't know how stringent Franklin county is.

Good luck mate.
