Does the state of Wisconsin offer a 12
month deferral for a speeding ticket?
I was pulled over on 11/03/2020 for going
15mph over in a 55 mph zone. This is my first speeding offense in nine years of
driving. I have no other tickets and have a clean criminal record. I was only
pulled over once in Minnesota but was given a verbal warning. I would like to
mitigate this offense down to a lesser charge.

I would retain counsel and instruct them to
get you the best deal possible. The exact outcome is impossible to predict,
since final offers are made by the prosecutor and need to be approved by the
judge. Your attorney can only make suggestions, one of which might be for
amendment to a lesser violation, and your odds of getting one of those would
improve greatly with experienced counsel. Either way, however, we all wish you
the best of luck, and encourage you not to overthink this, since it is, after
all, just a speeding ticket. Luckily, your license is not in trouble, but the
best way to keep it that way is to get the best possible deal on every
citation...

commonplace in Northern IL, they are a rarity in WI courts.
