Answer 1

A speeding ticket is considered a class C misdemeanor offense.

The class usually indicates the severity and at what level your fine will be, the worse offense is of course a felony and those also vary by an alpha degree. In the eyes of the law.

A misdemeanor offenses are not that big of a deal unless you get too many of them (more than three in a three year period).

However, even just one can have a huge bearing on your auto insurance rates depending on what the offense is.

Best to just slow it down and try to avoid any and all tickets or worse.

Answer 2

i would fight it...to much room for error if he was going the other direction...what was his method of computing your speed...
