I was nervous just like you the first time in court. And the memory does stay with you after a little while, but once its over, just do 5 MPH or less over the speed limit for a long while, and try to stay away from the area you got pulled over in, if possible. You'll be okay.

Hey, no i didnt get a lawyer. i was contemplating it...but i asked around ALOT from everyones experiences and just as you told me...first offences dont get looked at as badly as other offenses. but if i did drop 300-400 on a lawyer, it really isnt garunteed that they could do much more than i could do, and trust me, ive already started working on the 5 under limit haha, ive been driving like a grandma since that ticket
