Omg same here!
I got caught speeding on I-15 going to work.
Funny thing is, I was doing 83-85 but the officer pulled me over and said "You know a-ss-hol-es like you are the one that cause accident on the road right? then he thought i was racing with a mustang and i tried to explain to him and he said "bull****" Then he wrote me 99 on 70!
My court date is next month, I don't know what to do :\

Find out if you can go to traffic school by visiting the courts beb site.
Enter your citation #, select traffic school and you will find you if you get rejected or scepted and a traffic school candidate.
If you do
1. pay ticket at their web site and selct traffict school (about $40 extra + citation $$)
2. go to traffic school (about $25) Right this moment it's cheaper!!!
This web site idrivesafely.com will take care of submitting your certificate to the court.
Just take about 8 hours in a single day or do as much as you want each day.
There is a lot of reading and test taking (multiple or True/ false questions.)
You can re-take portions of the whole thing if in case you don't pass certain parts.
You can print all the reading parts and go back and take the test. You must wait at least 3 minutes to skip each of the reading parts (e.g. pages) to get to the test portion.
Remember1. You will have about 30 days to complete traffic school from the day you pay the citation
2. if short on cash, you have one extension (about 30 more days) from citation due date. Visit same site and select extension.
3. Do not wait until the last day to take care of this issues. It all depends on the court rules if you are allowed traffic school and if you should be granted any extension/s.
Good luck

2) idrivesafely will not submit the forms to the court, you have to do that yourself
3) The questions are super easy, don't pay attention to the material. If you have to, Google is your friend.
4) The judge will determine how long they will give you to complete the defensive driving. The judges usually gave me 3 months.
5) This is pointless information because the website clearly states you can not do the defensive driving if you were(or reported) speeding 25+ the limit.

But will not charge if they simply submit your certificate to the court (no other forms needed)
The judge will not decide here because if you do it through their web site, it is already stablsihed how long you have to complete traffic school.
All information provided in this thread, may very well have a point here even if it's for others in a similar situation now or in the future. In additon to that, hommie stated that the officer wrote him up speeding 24mph over sppeds limit. That means he is in deed under 25mph therefore, has a chance for traffic school. He has nothing to lose by just going into their web site and entering his information. Either he will be rejected or accepted. That's if this is the route he would like to take.
