I just got a ticket... help?

[celeste]

I got a speeding ticket?
hey, i'm 18. i got pulled over for being caught crossing through the carpool yellow lines, driving alone in the car pool and then pulled over. and the cop gave me tickets for my tinted tail lights and illegal front windows tint.. the same day i got pulled over i stripped off the tint right after so i'm not at risk anymore, so now i take my car to the station to prove to them i took it off right? will they charge me just for showing them i took it off? & also, i have a court date sept. 11, 2012, and he didn't put the carpool or crossing yellow lines on my ticket, but he did put speeding, according to him, he caught me going 86 in a 65, and this is my first offence, or my first ticket... will this raise my insurance? if i go to traffic school or whatever, will that allow me to avoid the insurance raise/point/record of the ticket right? how much is the ticket for speeding possibly going to be around? i live in california.. i'm nervous.. i don't want to be locked up or anything over a stupid little speed... i don't even have a job

how TF am i gonna get the money to pay this crap off.. fml.
also how likely is it that the cop will show up to court?
if he doesn't show up and this whole thing becomes dismissed my life would be made
and my lesson would be learned :D that's fa sho. lol

I doubt you'll get arrested for your first ticket. Get a job to pay for the fine.
