Okay, I was wrong. Got my speedometer checked and it was right 
on the dot. Guess I was really doing 80 on a 65 zone, though 
I would swear otherwise. :-(

Anyway, I still talked to a lawyer in Mcdonnel county and he said that
15 over the limit is chance for a license revocation and he will try
and get it down. He says it will cost me $500 (fees) and $150 court
fee. Compared to the states $10 fine and $60 court fee, this seems 
terribly high. Is he charging this because he knows I am not around
in NC and so have no choice? 

How much do insurance companies increase their premium
for traffic violations? Do they increase the liability or comprehensive
part. I have an old car and so if they are gonna increase 
comprehensive, I might as well just drop it. The lawyer sounded as if
there is 10-90 chance that anything good will come out of the $650
that he wants. Is this $650 worth it at all? 

Any help on this is REALLY appreciated.

Thanks much,
-S
