Exclamation advice/help needed

I was on my way home from work last night (I work at Dulles Town Center) at around 1130 so i decided to have a little fun. NO ONE was on the road and i was crusin, i suddenly passed one car and i looked in my rear view mirror, that one fuckin car was a cop. Long story short, he clocked me at 72 in a 45 zone and gave me a reckless driving ticket. I am a juvenile and this is my first offense, what kind of fines/punishments am I looking at and is there anything I can do. I kno that i am a dumbass and i shouldnt of been goin that fast, so you guys dont have to reinforce that.

lose your liscense till you're 18 or 1 year i think, fines, driving school, community service, probation if you're lucky

i got a 49 in a 30 and i was hit with 1 year probation, 10 hours community service and mandatory drivers improvement school...and i apparently got lucky

yea thing are alot different now, you go over 80 now and u spend the fuckin night at the tank.

as for your R/D ticket, i would get a lawyer, thats the best way, i take it the cop was a loudoun county officer? you might have a chance i dont know, cause loudoun county cops are dicks but NO where close to fairfax, im gonna be facing them fuckers on the 11th for street racing, which i wasnt doing, but im gonna lose no questions asked cause they dont fuck around and the judges support them so....but good luck and GET A LAWYER!!

Get a lawyer, I had two recklesses this past summer. One ticket was dropped to speeding 19 over, because of my lawyer (this one was in fairfax county). My second was in Runtsburgs (outside Lynchburg College), and I was clocked at 93 in a 55 and the judge said "for insurance reasons I will drop your ticket to, speeding 15 mph over the speed limit." I didn't have a lawyer for this one and couldn't believe that i got off with just a fine. And I still have my license!!

The only side affect i have had is DMV making me go to driver safety school (which i have already done).
