My 17 yr old son got his first speeding ticket on the interstate. He was going 76 in a 55. Will the Judge automatically charge him or will he be given a change to take a driving class to reduce the speed limit? Does it automatically go to the insurance company? Thanks

Your son may have been charged with a reckless driving or with a speeding violation. There is a difference between the two. There are ways to fight these types of charges in court. There are also classes available to help reduce a possible sentence. The court does not assign points regarding traffic convictions. But the DMV most likely will. This may affect your insurance rates.
