I recently got a speeding ticket (yesterday actually) over by Kern County in California. I just wanted to know how long it will take for the courtesy notice to arrive because I'm not ready to tell my parents about it just yet. Also, do speeding tickets require a mandatory court visit for someone who's over 18? I'm 19 to be exact. And lastly, is it possible for me to choose to do traffic school after paying the fine so it doesn't go on my insurance?
Also, I'm from Los Angeles so let's say that I needed to visit the court, can I do it in a court nearer to my place rather than having to drive all the way to the superior court in Lamont that the officer placed on my ticket?
