What I am asking is.. Can anyone can steer me in the right direction in regards to the best course of action I should take at this point.

Down here in South Florida you can get a lawyer to get you off both tickets (maybe)...you end up paying court costs but get no points...dunno if he can get you off two at once though...it's the old boy network...lawyer gets paid, judges & cops earn their keep...everybody gets paid off and you save from your insurance going up...or you can go to a class for one of the tickets...usually it's one day and the same cost as the ticket but again, no points...you should be able to take the class for one and have the lawyer get you out of the other one...constesting it yourself in court is a real bad idea down here...

Wise decision...even wiser would be to obey the traffic laws...

NO!!!!

If the two tickets are in different jurisdictions, have both addressed by an attorney.
