License taken for 24 over the speed limit in Georgia?


I have a friend who got caught driving at 69 in a 45 so she definitely has a large fine and her insurance might drop her because she's only 17 (turning 18 really soon)
so she went to her court date and they said they were taking her license for 6 months (I was pretty sure they were charger her with reckless driving as well because it was by a big shopping area with lots of traffic). She told me that whoever she went to to turn in her license when she was leaving said she looked at her driving record and said she'd reset the court date so that she can plead not guilty. But if you plead not guilty don't you have to have a lawyer to plead not guilty and explain your case, and even that being said there's no way she isn't guilty so how can you plead not guilty...
she was pleading nolo when she got it taken away and well we'll just say she's a pretty crazy driver so even though she is my friends I'd much rather not have her on the road trying to race around and do really stupid things.

It sounds like they already sentenced her; I don't think she can change her plea now.

Traffic courts are very corrupt ! Here in North Las Vegas, you can pay an extra fee, over the fine and have a moving violation reduced to a parking ticket. That way bad drivers can pay so points don't show up on their license. It's a joke !!!! Evidently, the court only wants revenue, not safer roads.

When your caught speeding the judge automatically charges you guilty. I asked a judge why he let others off but fined me and he told me that you're automatically guilty.

I'd think she's already pleaded out and Been sentenced; doubtful she can change a plea after a sentencing
