Reader’s Question:

I live in Florence, Kentucky and got a speeding ticket for doing 55 in a 35. I am only seventeen, is it necessary to have my parents go with me to the court? How many points will be removed from my license?

It is six points on your driver’s license for speeding 16 to 25 mph over the speed limit on any public highway or road. Receiving six points will likely get you a notification from the Division of Drivers Licensing and you may be requested to show up for an interview.

If you are required to appear to an interview, the Kentucky Transportation representatives will know if a State Traffic School program would benefit you as a motorist.

You will have to check with the clerk of the court’s office in Florence, Kentucky , or other entity listed on your citation ticket, to check if your parents need to show up with you at court. They will likely since you are seventeen and thus a minor.
