10% is only 6 mph. Never heard of a speeding charge like that; rather ambiguous.

What exactly does the citation say? It should state the speed limit and the speed you were clocked and the mechanism used to record your speed. This will show up on your MVR , and it will be pulled as part of the vetting.

A citation for 15+ mph over the limit is the threshold of acceptance. I agree with Big Scott; fight it in an attempt to get it reduced.

Protect your license everyone. It’s a huge part of how a potential new driver is qualified during the application review. Remember...you are competing with squeaky clean driving records. Shift the paradigm... drive safe.

MVR:

Motor Vehicle Record

An MVR is a report of your driving history, as reported from your state Department of Motor Vehicles. Information on this report may include Drivers License information, point history, violations, convictions, and license status on your driving record.
