i know i live in MICH, and in most cases, if you have a clean record now and no other such tickets like this. ask them to put it on "advisement" or sort of a probation. this means that the ticket will stay off your record but if you get another. you will get both. i am going to wayne state for criminal justice and am actually going to become an officer one day

so i know a little bit about it. plus, ive gotten out of my fair share of tickets.
