i received a ticket for speeding in the great state of texas. It looks like for 12 over, it's a 3 point offense. Is that a lot of points?
The nice lady at the office said I could either pay the fine ($160), or I could get a deferment, pay $260, and be on probation for 90 days in TX. I guess if I got another ticket in TX I'd be in trouble. But since I don't live in TX, not a problem.

Now, I'm not usually a speeder, but as it turns out, I got a 3 point ticket in 11/06 and a 2 pointer in 5/07, so this would put me up to 8 points (or do they decay over time?). Is that going to make a difference with insurance, etc?
