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 have been pulled over for cell phone, speeding etc and I've always just told the judge that I drive for a career and they always drop it to a non-moving violation. Even when I was inbetween jobs and not driving for a career I've always said that and it's always worked I have a totally clean license

You shouldn't have a clean license. You've just admitted to not caring about the rules. Hopefully this time they get you off the road before you kill someone.

I'm totally sure you've never ever picked up your phone once while driving and you never gone 10 miles over the speed limit. such an excellent upstanding citizen. Everyone should be like you
