If you've got a clean driving record you can sometimes talk the judge into it yourself. Wear a suit.

Hmm that makes sense. I've had 2 other citations in the past 5 years but all got dismissed due to Defensive Driving so I guess my record is clean? Idk if it still shows up that I have those on record or not. Hopefully not though. And will do. My court date is March 6th or 8th but I'm going to the court Monday morning to see if I can just try to get away with taking Defensive Driving and if not just that I'll do probation. I'll dress a little more business casual with that
