Re: I finally got a ticket :(
Your Toast. You will definitely want to do exactly as golfergal said. Also don't just pay the ticket go to court and go in front of the judge. When you go dress sharp but not trendy, be well groomed and have your air cut, and remove any exposed body piercings. When you stand up before the judge make and keep eye contact, be respectful and most importantly be remorseful. Don't make excuses for speeding tell the judge you made a mistake and was not watching your speed. Judges see hundreds of sloppy dressed, disrespectful teens and adults daily many of them with attitudes so it can work in your favor to come across as Beaver Cleaver (old show I think in the 50's or 60's before my time). This as worked for me on two occasions once a reduce ticket and one time just a stern lecture plus court fees.
Be thankful it was only 10 mph, some of mine have been in excess of twice the posted speed. A note for future reference: if you know your busted and there is place to pull in next to the cop safely do so. They seem more willing to give you a warning or reduce the recorded speed so your below the 10 mph limit. Also, yes sir/mam and no sir/mam doesn't hurt either.
Good Luck, let us know how it turns out.
