In SC traffic court, if you plead "guilty" to a non-accident violation, the judge usually reduces your fine about 1/2, and the points are dropped or reduced. That is the reason many people here prefer to just plead guilty. The judge prefers that way too, because he can clear 20 cases in about five minutes.
