My experience...
This time last year got pulled over on a motorbike doing "54-35" in Harrisonburg coming off a exit ramp.. I was doing more like 70+.. Cop pulled me over.. Helmet came off and license came out. "yes sir" "no sir" was my response to everything.. Easily could have gotten written up for reckless but cop lowered it.. I took a online driving course before hand to bring with me to court to show the court. I pleaded guilty to the judge. Judge basically asked the cop if I was respectful and cooperative. Cop laid it out that I was more than cooperative and polite. Judge dismissed the ticket and all I paid was $60 in court fees..
Moral of the story.. Be polite, come prepared, and admit your guilty and by showing you've taken initiative to take a driving course will do a lot to help your case.
