BAleR,

It's very hard to swallow, but here's some good advice from one who knows. I've been on both sides of this fence.

Be honest to the judge and officer. When the officer writes the tickets he writes notes on his copy he'll take to court to refresh his memory. He'll write down comments that you made during your encounter. You'll most likely not remember incriminating statements you may have said when you were 1st stopped and if you contradict yourself in court they'll KNOW you're lying. Don't take the chance. Admit you did what you did and nothing more. Ask the judge for some consideration due to your age and the fact your father is with you and is dishing out his own form of punishment. Be humble, honest and remorseful.

As a youth I've had my run-ins with the law too as has most everyone here at some point. I've been a sheriff's deputy for 12 yrs now, going on 13 in January. Bad medicine is tuff to swallow, but it'll be over before you know it.
