So I have until Aug. to drive good otherwise they will pull my license. Though right now I have a European license plate on my car so we will see how long I can get away with that.

Actually it's over 24mph you can't take defensive driving in Texas.....unless you got connections.
Got first one in '04 for 95 in a 65, that was actually about to turn to 55 only about 50 ft from where i was pulled over. Anyway, contacted my roomate at the times uncle who is a traffic lawyer and got a connection through him for the county I was pulled over in. He talked to the judge and since it was my first offense they lowered my speed so I could take d.d.
On that note, how in hell do people actually fail d.d.? I mean they give you the damn answers for crying out loud. No one failed in my class, but people actually missed questions.
