I took delivery of my C63 today and not sure if it was there and I just didn't notice it, but is the passenger airbag off light always on if there's no one in the passengers seat?

yes

I got a speeding ticket last night, 2nd day with the beast. I have a clean record (no points) and never got a speeding ticket before. Think they'll offer me a higher fine and no points? Ticket states 74 in a 65.

EDIT: I've previously (years ago) taken the driving class to reduce points when I ran a stop sign. Not sure if they'll let me take this again should they not drop the points.

LOL. Sorry, but I'm LOL.

Me too, but got 2 tickets in 2 weeks after having the car for less than 1 month.

My recommendation is to of course plead not guilty, and when you face the judge, don't contest you were speeding, rather, pleaed for lieniency and ask for the ticket to be reduced to 5 miles over. In PA at least, that's a no point ticket, but it should still show up on your record. If you feel brave, ask for it to be dismissed altogether.

I've been in a situation before where the prosecutor took me aside and talked to me before I saw the judge. If the prosecutor does not come to me, and I go directly to the judge, should I just tell them that I would like maybe a lesser charge and higher fine but no points?
