    * my first ticket I was going down A hill. I was going 58 in a 40. I answered all of his questions correctly and he still gave me a ticket.

    Today I had to pick up my boyfriend to take him to the hospital and Iwas very worried and scared and I was speeding and got pulled over going 84 on the freeway which is 65. I told him the story still saying it was no excuse but I was very worried and had to get to him to take him to he hospital because he cut himself badly at work and noone could take him. He just looked at me and handed me the ticket and walked away.

    Each cite is a seperate offense. You will have to answer each of them seperately.

    Oh ... slow down.

    The CHP has gotten a lot more agressive in California because we're becoming a "third world state" because of all of our problems and they feel the need to generate income...but that's another issue.

    It does sound as though your were properly cited so I would 'shoot' for traffic school for the first offense. For the second, I would plead not guilty and take a copy of the hospital report for your wounded friend; you might get lucky!

    And, as Carl says...slow down! That will prevent future problems.

    The fine income is chump change compared to the expenditures. If it were about money we would stop speed enforcement. The real money is coming from fees and taxes that get around protections of Prop. 13 and other taxpayer support measures.

    You're right, it is another issue.

    Well can I got to traffic school for both?
    or pay for one and traffic school for the other?

    Nope - can't go to traffic school for both.

    Do as chuckycheese suggests and go to traffic school for the first one and try to fight the second one.
