I got a speeding ticket in chicago gotta go to court how much money am i gonna waste????

There are different court costs affiliated with the dispositions of traffic matters, which vary based on whether you receive supervision vs. a conviction and if you are also assessed a fine. It is almost impossible to put an exact dollar amount on what you will be fined and what the costs will be prior to your attendance in court and without knowing your specific traffic background. Additionally, you have to be careful about not receiving 3 or more moving traffic convictions within a year, because then your license will be automatically suspended by the Secretary of State. The best advice is to consult with an attorney who can review the matter with you, determine if there are any defenses, and represent you in court.
