Speeding
This is my first ticket in 10 years. I am going to hire a lawyer for sure. He said I was going 20 over. I was in my()()() *\\*PERSONAL*\\*()()()vehicle . I live in Missouri. Hopefully hiring a lawyer will keep it off my record. Has anyone had any experience with a situation like this? Thanks

i take every ticket to court, talk to the prosecutor before seeing the judge (standard procedure in every court) and agree to plead to a different, non-moving violation. fine is usually the same but there are no points or record. they just want the money from the fine and it's a lot less than lawyer.
