If you plead guilty to the ticket or just pay the

ticket YOU WILL LOSE YOUR LICENSE. A speed of

20 mph or greater over the speed limit results in

a mandatory loss of license. Therefore, if you do

not want to lose your license plead "NOT GUILTY"

to all charges and transfer your case to Court of

Common Pleas and hire a lawyer. Because you are

a minor one of your parents will have to accompany

you to all court appearances.
