2 days before he goes to court to get a ticket from a month ago reduced! If we don't tell the judge he just got another ticket, will they know, or do we just fuss up? I just the first ticket lowered to help out with the insurance costs. Not a great reason but I have to know if the newest ticket will come up in court? Does anyone know what it means if there is an "I" circled on the ticket means?

My suggestion is to beat the judge to the draw. In most states, when a child is under 18 years of age, the parents have the right to "revoke" the child's license. Take his license immediately, and tell him how long it will be until it is returned (I suggest a minimum of six months). Advise the judge of this action in court, and produce the license in your possession.
Let's face it, this is the very least punishment you should levy on your son. After all, you had one ticket reduced, and he basically has rubbed your face in that. He sounds like a very disrespectful young man.
By revoking his license, you may save yourself some money, and you may save your son's life. He needs to learn that society has rules, and that there are consequences for breaking those rules.

Looks like he really learned his lesson from the first ticket. I hope the court knows about the second one when you get there, maybe he will learn at some point.
In thinking about this, I'm going to have to take a day off and sit in court some day, if this is the kind of thing that goes on, I'm sure it is much funnier than anything on Comedy Central.

If it comes up, tell him. If it doesn't, don't worry about it. It's only a temporary fix anyway. When the second ticket comes to light and you have to go back, the judge will be fully aware of both.

by your own account, the kid got 2 tickets very close to each other, so that tells me he is not a good driver. Pay the tickets and send him back to a driving school to learn how to drive before you get a very unwelcome phone call one night.

Pay the first ticket then see if your son can go to traffic school and pay for that one.
Plus kick your sons butt for driving stupid.
"I" means Insured.
Expect the judge to see both tickets but don't mention the 2nd one if he doesn't.

ground him - I've never gotten a speeding ticket in 30+ yrs of driving - make him pay it in full and pay for the increased insurance costs - that will teach him to slow down

Just keep your mouths shut and pay the tickets. Your son is a little thick headed isn't he?

I think it's time to take the car away. He is clearly not responsible enough to be driving since he obviously didn't learn his lesson the first time. What are you teaching your son? Apparently nothing!

Do not lie about. If asked you can plead the 5th, but if you say that the judge will know right away. If you lie about it or pretend never to have had one and the judge finds out about it you could get hit with perjury.

I hope the judge knows about the second one as well. Time to have his license suspended or revoked.
(and what is this "WE" stuff. he should face the music alone!)
