Unless the judge is a chick on rag week I think you will keep the licence mate 
If you havent pleaded guilty yet do a bit of research and see what you can find

So why are you going to court if you were pulled? Did he not offer to prosecute there and then?

what the lad says  watched a tv program about it recently, there are tons of ways to soften the blow  just need to do a little investigating 
If your happy to take the points and fine thats cool, I just like making a point, and being a bit of an inconveniance for a while

50 In a 30 is a fixed penalty offence... yellow ticket
Unless they're trying to do you for dangerous driving etc, If you have a HORT1 its a presenter isn't it. Get down the cop shop with your documents

Make them work for their money. Regardless of how stupid you are, you could still find a way out of it or atleast soften the blow..
Old myths suggest it makes things worse, i can assure you that is not true.
