Well, I got a speeding ticket yesterday.

It was for 15 over. $140. The dollar amount of the ticket is one thing, but I'm more concerned about what it is going to do to my insurance. My record was perfect prior to this.

I know I screwed up and I got caught. I had just got off the phone, I was trying to get directions to a house that I was on the way to look at. I could have very well picked up speed and not had a chance to look at my odometer to then adjust my speed.

So, I see that I have two options. I can just pay the money and be done with the whole mess or I could go to court and fight it.

If I chose the second selection, I would go along the lines that the officer miss identified the car as a wagon vs. sedan. Also, I'm a safe driver without a habit of regular speeding. If one was to look at my record my opinion of my driving ability and prudence would be consistent with my observation. Finally, I was not endangering any fellow motorist at one time.

I would appreciate any advice. Thanks.
