okay i was in colorado doing about 85 in a 65 on the interstate and my buddy was in the car in front of me this cop pulled us both over and gave us a exhibition of speed ( racing over 100mph) and a wreckless driving ticket. we were like WTF but anyway we are from Nebraska and he told us here is your court date and have a fun trip back! (a$$) its like a 10 hour drive for us. then on top of that we were given the worst judge in the county. we were facing 180 days in jail and a 900 dollar fine!!!!! so i got a lawyer and so did my buddy ($500/person) we show up to court that day and got our charges dropped to what i dont remember but with that we were facing 90days in jail and a 600 dollar fine. well i go there and the person in front of me gets a warrent out for his arrest and a 500 fine for not showing up i was like this aint good. so now its my turn my lawyer pleeds my case and then the judge and him start to bull**** and laugh about texas ( this is a good thing cause now she is in a good mood) once everything was said she paused for a while and gave me a $122.04 fine and said dont let it happen again so i felt pretty happy i went from 180days in jail and 900 to 122.04 but in the end it cost me

500 lawyer
122.04 fine
65 hotel
50 gas

for a total of $737.04

so good luck to ya and my suggestion get a lawyer i know it helped me!!!!!!!
