I just got back from my court appearance at the Roswell courthouse.
I showed up on time and dressed business casual.
The solicitor was a nice attractive 30something blonde.
She called all of us up in a group (who were within 5mph of 14 over) and told us she would give us all the same deal:
Reduction to 14 over and no points or reporting.
*In GA, currently 14 over is the max you can be driving and convicted of with no points on your record and no reporting to insurance.*
Needless to say, I took the deal: 79 in a 65.
It was still a $180 fine tho; and 2.5 hours wasted.
If I hadn't shown up to court and instead had paid the fine like many people do, I'd have received a $450 fine and points on my license.
Next is my 30 over ticket in Heflin, AL.
I may have to use nolo there.
