Re: Driving while having suspended license/plates

As you are on probation, you must notify the probation as soon as possible about your contact with the police.

While the speeding ticket is a violation, it is not that serious.

However, the aggravated uinlicensed operation in the 3rd degree is a criminal act and could lead to a violation of your probation and jail time.

It is a double whammy, you could get jail time for aggravated unlicensed operaton 3rd degree and then get additional jail time for violation of probation.

You should contact a lawyer immediately.
