How can i reduce an exhibition of speed ticket in kansas?
I was wondering how can i get out of/ reduce
an exhibition of speed ticket. I was acclerating
quickly one night in ny mustang and got pulled
over, he didnt know how fast i was going and i
told him i didnt know. He gave me a ticket for
exhibition of speed. How can I reduce the
insurance points or get out of it in all? The
incident was in Wichita, Kansas at 1045pm on
a friday night. Pulled over by city police. Thank
you.

"Fighting" the ticket, as in pleading not-guilty and hoping the state/government can't prove its case, rarely works: in my experience, police officers are generally taken to be truthful and reliable witnesses, and if they say you were speeding, a court will generally agree.
But prosectors and courts tend to be very reasonable about deals, especially if you are willing to trade off a larger fine for not having points. When you show up for court, speak to the prosecutor. You hopefully have an otherwise clean driving record and can stress that; also state that you don't believe you were speeding at the time, but were simply accelerating quickly (for some good reason which you should state: e.g. to get to highway speed after merging); there is a good chance you will be offered the opportunity to plead to an offense with fewer, or possibly no, points.
