Just file for trial by written law, it's an option listed in the back of the ticket usually. It's a lot easier. PM for more details.

am i even eligble for traffic school with that big of a violation?

Nope, more than 20 over = no traffic school in CA. All you can hope is that the judge will not suspend your license and you can afford your newly adjusted insurance rates.

I got nailed there for 6 over and was given two options by the judge:
Plead guilty and take traffic school.
-or-
Fight the ticket and be found guilty.

I was just glad I made it out of town alive. I fully expected to be followed and ticketed again when I left town. To be honest I am not sure if the judge and cop were related or just horribly inbred lovers...

Protip: Always run from cops, they can't catch you and won't be able to give you a ticket !

Dude, King City is a speed trap, a few years ago my brother and a couple of my friends lived in SLO. Every time I drove down there (twice a month) I saw someone getting popped between King City and Paso Robles. I even saw some beaners involved in a slow speed chase one time. There were five or six of them in an early 90's accord, they just refused to pull over, it was really wierd.

I drove from Santa Barbara to Sacramento when I was at UCSB so many times I have completely lost count. Did I ever get a ticket? Nope. Wanna know a secret? Cut over at Paso Robles on the 41/46 East to Kettleman City and take the 5 North, takes the exact same amount of time as continuing up the 101, never ever ever ever ever go up the 101 past Paso Robles, and that's not just my advice.

Edit: if someone, anyone has any cardboard boxes, I need them if you have them, PLEAAAAAAASE???????!!!!
