I had a ticket deferral a few years back. Went to Thurston County court clerk office or something, asked for deferral. I paid $150 and did not get another ticket for 3 years, I think, and it did not go on my record. As far as I know, you do not pay the ticket, you pay $150 flat rate. If you get another during the period, you get to pay both and they both go on your record. Have you talked to CanyonMan for an insurance quote?
