So I went to court today and the state cop who got me took the points from my license. Not for this one that I mentioned at the start of the thread, but in late August I got a similar ticket for speeding and two others relating to the fact that I was weaving in and out of traffic. In total it would have been 11 points for all three citations which when added to the 4-5 points from this offense would have been about a 3 month license suspension.
It was cool in that he eventually decided to remove the points and reduced the offenses on the citations to lesser charges that won't lead to points being added, but it sucked in that i had to listen to this schwartze lecture me for 5 minutes. "OH but when you get to the toll booth you see the same people you blew by 20 minutes before. So what's the sense in that?" or "Yeah my dad used to tell me that you need responsibilities, son, and he spelled that B-I-L-L-S" or "Now you know how important it is to be able to drive and what a priveledge it is." And the kicker, the one that wanted me to bite him in the face. He asked what did for a living after I explained to him that i needed to drive to make a living - I told him sales - he said, "Well there's always internet sales!" I just stared at him after that and just nodded. I was thinking YOU FUCK I want you dead.
So what I took away from this is that I will NEVER put myself in that position again where some fuckwad has my fate in his hands.
