Usually they know eachother and just bullshit and "yeah yeah...okay sounds good". $300 later with a nod and a handshake they drop your charge down. Our legal system....for traffic anyways is all garbage.

I was at court for a reckless driving (over 80) in virgina on a highway. The guy before me was there for reckless driving on a motorcycle...which caused an accident. He had a lawyer and walked out with a $700 fine and supervision.

Me...no lawyer....$1800 fine and 6 month suspension....with a lying cop who changed around everything from what he told me when he pulled me over. Thanks great legal system.
Holy shit, what was the speed limit? Have you been busted on this before? I heard that VA was a bitch when it came to speeding but thats ridiculous.
