    Were you over 100MPH? In that case the fine is $900 with all the surcharges, two points, and a mandatory court appearance (and possibly a 30 day suspension) as it says above.

    If 100 or less, it's $490 and one point.

    The fine is rather steep ($900), but wait until you see what happens to your insurance premiums.

    Since you ask about the "worst" thing...don't forget the part about an insurance rate hike. If you are under 25, that can be substantial. If you are offered traffic school, that will cost you more up front, but will avoid the point and your insurance company from finding out.

    Of course, the "worst" consequence I can think of is, after getting the ticket, you are distracted and pull away from the stop in front of an oncoming semi, resulting in a fiery collision...but, that is unnecessarily morbid and likely beyond the intended extent of your question.

    Sorry but a 22348(b) violation is a 2 point violation and traffic school is NOT an option .
