98 in a 65. AND Reckless Driving. If California jurisdictions are anything like Colorado, and I suspect they are -- you're fine. In large areas (where in California ISNT?) the District Attorney has much more important cases (Third DUI with two homicides, for example) and will offer you a plea bargain. He offers you a lesser sentence in exchange for pleading guilty.

In my case (14 points), it was reduced to "Careless Driving," a four point offense.

I wouldn't worry excessively - their goal is not to fuck everyone who gets a ticket - it's to make sure that those who grossly break the law or are repeat offenders recieve their justice.
