Please see this link, which lists all the violations and the points associated with each violation.

It depends. For simple traffic violations, it is highly unlikely that you will go to jail. For 8 points speeds or criminal charges, there is greater concern.

The "48 Hours" is mostly meaningless. The real deadline is the date on the left side of the ticket, which is usually approximately 30 days from the date of the violation.

This is technically impossible. The judge does not have the discretion to add or remove points. A judge can modify the violation to a lower level violation but cannot do as much if you plead guilty.

The only way to avoid points is by pleading Not Guilty, and then getting the ticket dismissed or reduced to a violation that does not have points.

Even if the speed is verified by Radar or Laser, it does not mean you are guilty. There are many ways of challenging a speeding ticket.

If you are charged with a simple traffic violation, your attorney can go to court in your place. There are some exceptions for 100+ speeding tickets or criminal charges.

Besides being able to go to court in your place, an experienced traffic ticket attorney is in the best position to obtain the most optimal disposition. This is because they are more familiar with legal nuances, available programs, procedural steps, and technical requirements. This knowledge is utilized to obtain a dismissal, or Not Guilty finding, or can be used as leverage to get an advantageous plea deal.
