Anyone got a speeding ticket in MD since the new law about having to request a waiver hearing or a trial?

I got pulled over the other day by the MD Transportation Police for doing 70 in a 55 zone on 895. According to the new rules, I can't just not pay the fine and wait for a court date. (Shadowquad let me know this at the last meet)

I have an Indiana license but I have my car registered here in MD. So my options are to request a trial (plead not guilty) or request a waiver hearing (guilty with an explanation). Does anything help in this state such as traffic school like in VA, or should I just go to court and plead guilty and ask for leniency?
