Call your insurance agent and ask, dont tell him you got one, but just ask. I dont know about what the fines would be in AR but my speeding ticket was 13 over in a school zone, and i hired a lawyer to get it off my record. Total cost was about $300.

There's no sense in worrying about it. Whatever happens is going to happen. I don't mean to sound like a jackass, but you did the crime, you'll have to pay the consequences.

Go to the judge that hears the cases and ask him how to get on the deferred program. You will have to go through a drivers training class, most likely at home, on your own time through a series of tapes.

It will wipe it off your record, the fine is a whole lot smaller, no points off the license and no rate hikes on your insurance.

You just can't get another moving violation within a year or it all gets put back on your record...

I had to do that when I was 17, only it was a mandatory 8 hour class I had to attend.

I took it when I was 16, they just sent me home with like 4 or 5 VHS tapes and a book of questions I had to complete...sent it back to the judge and everything got deferred.

When I was 17 I got a ticket for going 81 in a 70 on the interstate. Funny thing is there were like 5 people passing me at the time. But anyways I went to cort and the judge droped the ticket off my record and didnt make me pay it. But she also suspended my DL for 6 months. First offence and everything just shity luck I guess.

The easiest way to solve the problem is to go talk to the court attorny. Usually they will make it a different violation....all u gotta do is pay the higher cost(300-400) and/or take a drivin class. It will not be on your record...

heres a trick so your insurance wont find out or go up. Tell the judge that u were stupid, just being a normal teenager(if u are), and she might drop it a bit, but then ask for $30 days to pay it, they will send u a check, send them the total plus $3 extra dollars, then they will send a check back for $3, and just rip it up and throw it away. Then, they cant close the case, cause u didn't cash the check.

Whether it's closed or not, the insurance companies can still find out it's on your record. As of just a couple years ago, insurance companies have access to that information instantly and for free now (they used to have to subscribe to a service and it would tkae months to actually show up on your record). About 4 years ago I got a ticket and never told my insurance company, and they never changed my rates. About 5 months ago I got a ticket at 7:30am on my way to work and my insurance agent knew by 7:45 and called me at work (it was a bad ticket).
