If not, he'll probably qualify for traffic school.
In California, your record must be clear for 18 months in order to qualify for traffic school -- thereby "hiding" the moving violation from your insurance company. The laws may be more lenient in Alabama, I don't know.
At any rate, 47 mph in a 30 zone is excessive.
The best thing he can do -- in the long term -- is to slow down in general.
