Dang! That sucks Allie!
Whatever you plan to do, don't forget to pay the fine!

They don't mess around, lol.
I got hit with a speeding ticket a year back and I had to pay $500 because my payment was late for a long time and they also suspended my license as well until I paid the full amount!
I recommend that you go to court. There is a slight chance that the cop won't show up and you don't get to pay anything. Also, go to traffic school as it will take the traffic violation points off your record. They have it online now and it's very easy to take.
