I got stopped doing 80 in a 65 zone in Guildford County. It is my first offence, and I was wondering if it is worth going to court and trying for prayer for judgement. The only slightly tricky thing is that I am a non-resident temporarily working in the USA. I do have an NC drivers licence though (been here 2 yrs). I read on a website somewhere that this amount of speed is considered a misdemenour, and I'm not sure how that will sit with the INS when I try to renew my visa. I'm just wondering what prayer for judgement would do though - does it get rid of offence completely, or just reduce speed? Is there going to be much difference if I get my speed reduced?
thanks for any help.
