Virginia Speeding Ticket

This is a four point Virginia speeding ticket and will increase your auto insurance, especially since you are still considered a "teenager" by the insurance companies. Was there a reduced speed ahead sign? If not you could argue that you were in the process of slowing down and the judge might dismiss with court costs or at least reduce it to an under 10 violation. You will need to take pictures.

Most insurance companies give you a pass if you only have one under 10 violation. Take a certified copy of your driving record to court with you. In general, it always pays to contest a speeding ticket. While this one may not make a difference, the next one will and I think Virgina keeps records for five years. I assume you know that 20+ or over 80 is reckless driving in Virginia.
