If you have a speeding ticket in Kankakee County, it is possible to have the speed reduced. First, there are three types of speeding tickets. Speeding 1-25 mph over the posted speed limit, 26-34 over the posted speed limit, and 35 mph and above the posted speed limit. Regardless of how fast you were going, you do NOT want to pay the ticket.
If you pay the ticket you are simply buying yourself a CONVICTION. The CONVICTION will appear on your driving record and your car insurance price will increase. A CONVICTION will also limit your ability to keep your license valid. Additionally, a CONVICTION can effect your ability to keep or obtain employment.

So, even a minor ticket for speeding in Kankakee County you need to take it seriously and try to have the ticket either dismissed or reduced to a non-moving violation. If those two options are not possible, having the ticket disposed of with Court Supervision might be the only option. As an Attorney, I work hard to try to dispose of the ticket without having to resort to Court Supervision.
The second ticket type of ticket is 26-34 mph. The third ticket type is 35 mph over the speed limit. Additionally, both are misdemeanors, and are classified as criminal offenses. I usually can have the speed reduced to below 25mph. Therefore the ticket becomes a “petty offense” basically a simple speeding ticket. I can then have the Court grant you court supervision, so there will be NO conviction. The ticket will say off of your driving record. Your car insurance will not find out about the ticket.
