I have a South Carolina driver's license, and I had like one speeding ticket per year in the past 4 years for at least 10 or more over each time. I had one mandatory court appearance for a Florida ticket that I went to and had to pay $300 for the ticket and court fees. In March, I got pulled over in Camden County Georgia for 89 in a 70 and found out my license was suspended because of the ticket I got in Florida. I found out it was suspended because that ticket put me over the amount of points against my license. I was supposed to go to jail and my car impounded, but the cop let me have a freind pick me and my car up. I got deployed to Iraq so I wasn't able to make my court date for the Georgia incident. I told the court clerk I was being deployed, and she was like I needed to talk to the judge, but he was never there. I missed my second court date while deployed and they put out a warrant for my arrest. I talked to a lawyer friend of mine and the priors didn't make the outlook good for me. I had to pay a total of $2200 for a driving with a suspended license and a speeding ticket, but at least no jail time. I got my license reinstated only to get a letter two months later saying it is suspended because of Georgia's gay ass driving with a suspended license law. I also got banned from driving in Georgia for six months. Now I have to spend more money to get my license reinstated again. I kind of know how you feel. Atleast try to talk to a lawyer and see what he could do for you. Mine got me out of jail time for some stupid law. Good luck.
