That sucks.
I'll give you the benefit of the doubt and assume that you weren't endangering anyone...

If your driving record is okay, and you can afford to take the day off from work,
you may be able to talk to the D.A. on the day of your trial (get there early and be sure to sign in
on the sheet in the courtroom, or you might be found guilty in absentia while waiting in line to speak with the D.A.)
and plea bargain to, at least, get the points taken off so that your car insurance rates are not affected.

Oh, yeah, and plan on paying "court costs" and "processing fees", as well. Ugh.
At least that's the way it goes in VA.

Plus, watching the other plea bargaining while waiting your turn is highly entertaining.
You'd be AMAZED at the way the system really works...
