I exit, turn the car off and place my keys near my gauges in sight and begin taking out my insurance and license. He walks up and says what's the hurry sir. I just tell him oh nothing really me and a buddy were just going to downtown to take a few photographs of our cars. He tells me did you know you were going 89 in a 65? I'm say wow. I speed but never really this much. Might have just Ben the excitement of going to take some pictures? Idk. I end up getting a ticket for 24 over as well as switching lanes without a blinker which I will admit too.

I am currently trying to figure out how to deal with this since i believe I've already taken DD about 9 months ago and my only other deal is Deferred Disposition. Thing is I'm 20 and apparently for people under 25 if you want to take probation you HAVE to take DD and I don't think I can. I live in SA TX as well so if anyone has any idea as to how I can approach this it will be greatly appreciated.

I was told to try to just tell em that I haven't taken DD in the past year and to try to get away with it because its happened in the past to a couple buddies due to te court not keeping track of it but besides that I got nothing except for talking to th judge and just sorry my way into possibly getting out of it and taking probation.

Sorry for the long rant. Been a long week

Ps: before anyone starts throwing that "oh stop racing on the highways" etc., I would just like to make it clear that we weren't. Just a cruise towards downtown SA to take some pictures and I ended up going faster than intended and got caught for it.
If you have time to go to court, do it and just ask the judge to take defensive driving. I know a guy who took it three times in one year, and I don't know anyone (out of about a dozen court appearances) who has been denied when they asked.
