You should be okay.
Just go to the exact court that the ticket says to go to.

When you arrive they will offer you options so you don't get the ticket.
If they don't offer you options ASK THEM if they have these options below:

Typically, if you have not taken defensive driving within the past 12 months, they will offer you this option. It's not that expensive. This process includes that you can't get any tickets for 90 days after you agree to take defensive driving. It's pretty simple.

Option 2: Usually most courts offer something called Deferred prosecution. This option is usually expensive, but you STILL won't get the ticket and you won't get any points on your license. You usually pay them a fat fee, then later on, you have to show you didn't get any tickets for the next 90 or 120 days.

Just go to the court and ask if either of these are available. Also since you didn't go more than 15 miles over the speed limit, chances are you have both of these options.

Don't just mail in the payment for that ticket. Go to the court as soon as you can get there and just go to clerk/counter where you pay tickets. Unless you already have used up these options, they likely are readily available.

Good luck.
