My gf had a 100% perfect record, she was 26 years old doing 13 over in some small VA county. Appeared in court, asked for reduced fine or driving school. Nope, guilty, full fine. No one in that court got any reduction.
Smaller towns/counties can be rough, they want all the money they can get.

I've had nothing but luck in Chesterfield and Henrico courts, though I've never gotten a reckless ticket. Those are pretty hard to beat.

But I ask where she got the ticket because there are a few areas that are 55 zones that suddenly drop to a 35/45 zone. One in particular is down a steep hill, and usually has a lot of truck traffic making it difficult for a lead car to slow down without getting rear ended.
