You turn the claims over to your carrier and hopefully get them out of the way of the criminal process so they wont put pressure on the DA. If this is your first offense you will pay a fine and court costs, several hundred dollars and you will lose your license for a year. your insurance will go sky high If you have a chance to beat it, hire you the best traffic court lawyer in town. He might win your case on some technicality and if not he might get you a limited driving permit so you can drive to work.
