In every case I was lowered to the least (court cost) and that was a huge savings of $. I suggest you bring your paperwork showing dad in the hospital, you might get it torn up or drastically reduced based on your honesty and the good will of the court. Just my honest opinion and past three tickets experience (The biggest one was 82 in a 60 written as 69 in a 60. The 82 in a 60 would have cost almost 300!) then at the courthouse, I asked the trooper if there was any way I could save any of the 89 (round number) bucks and she knocked it down to 30 court costs. The ticket still got on my record but it cost only 30 bucks and the insurance agency report (as usual). In all three cases, I got quite a break just by being honest, and asking afterwards if it could be less expensive. Good luck!
same here when i get caught here in pa, ny, and nj i ask for a reduced fine they give it to me and they drop the points, i dunno how it is in the south but up here easley all they care about is the money they dont care if your safe or the speed you go just as long as they get some cash out of you, i would plead guilty but ask for a reduction...they can re-write the ticket for a lesser fine and offense for you 9 chances out of 10...
