Too many possible variables to be able to give you a percentage. But passing it along to an experienced traffic ticket attorney increases the odds.

Both tickets carry three point, which can lead to a driver responsibility assessment fee and higher insurance premiums. Pleading not guilty might be the best approach. An attorney can handle the plea and any necessary court appearances on your behalf.
