1. Pay your tickets
2. Get you insurance reinstated on your car
3. Contact the DMV about getting your license reinstated.

Okay, when you don't follow the rules, bad things happen. You can only drive with valid insurance. Once you have insurance, you have to carry proof of it in the car so you can show it on demand to an officer, or have the information to exchange in case of an accident. You didn't have it there, so you did break a law, but the chances are if you show them in court that you did actually have insurance at the time you got the ticket, they will dismiss that.
You're obviously leaving something out. The state won't take your plates and your license for just 2 speeding tickets, and one of them is paid already according to your statement. That just doesn't ring true.
If you drive on a suspended license with or without insurance and get stopped, especially with no plates, you will definitely go to jail and have your car towed. Then you might as well say it's gone, because you won't get it out without valid plates, insurance and a driver's license. (I run a towing service and repair shop). In Oklahoma it would cost you $65 hook up, $3 a mile towed, and $15 a day storage, and after 30 days I would have the right to auction off your car to the highest bidder.
As someone else said, appear on your ticket and get your old one paid. Find out what you need to do and do it. Luck.

It will differ in every state, so I'll just say what would happen in Arkansas:
If you were caught driving on a susp. license, you would be given another traffic ticket and the vehicle would be towed. To get the car back, you'd have to pay the tow service (around $60 for tow and $5 per day) and show your ins. and license.
As far as getting your license back...that really depends upon the judge. Be sure to show up for all your court dates. You don't want a failure to appear warrant out for you. They will likely help you with a payment plan to pay the fines, but you still need to go to court on the ticket.

there may nicely be some forte vendors which will insure YOUR automobile from being stolen even as it sits on your storage, or on your driveway. yet no position will insure a non-licensed motive force, its unlawful to force and not using a license, and its fraud to insure criminal interest.

Slow down... (ha!) The judge will want to see EVERYTHING connected to this situation so bring copies of all insurance papers, reciepts for paid fines, everything.
