Default $hit! got my first speeding ticket for 82 in a 55 on I-270 in MD...

The ticket was $140 and I asked the cop how many points and he said 2 and he used a laser device, so I'm screwed. Do I have any chance if I go to court since this is my first speeding ticket and I have no other tickets whatsoever? How badly will 2 points affect my insurance premium? I use geico. Anyone in MD have any experience to share?

Go to court and hopefully since it is your first you can get it knocked down.

Where in Troy is the 100 octane you were talking about? How much is it per gallon?
