Legal Question in Traffic Law in Iowa
I was pulled over for running a yellow light. I was driving under suspension. The officer gave me a ticket but it did not have a fine, it is only a court date. What is most likely going to happen to me? What is the best thing to do for my defense? I want to avoid jail at all costs.

It's a simple misdemeanor and you can expect a modest fine and a stern talking to. Although jail is a possibility it is remote.
