my first ticket

alright, i have read some of the posts on here and am hoping that some of you can help me.

yesterday i got pulled over doing 43 in a 30. the cop was nice enough to bump it down to a 40 in a 30. my main problem is, i signed the damn ticket instead of asking for a court date. (i was more preoccupied trying to remember stuff for my calculus test and not thinking about a court date). the fine is only 59 dollars, but i'm more worried about my insurance. this is my first driving offence since i have been driving, 6 + years.

obviously if i was thinking clearly i would've asked for a court date. is there anything i can do to not have it reported to insurance or did i tottally F myself on this one?

on a side note, the cop was a total douche. seeing how it was my first offence i asked him which would effect my insurance more, (probably not the best question) but i mean he could've given me a little bit of advice. i used Sir and Officer whenever i could, that's just how i was raised. oh well.
