How likely is the judge to raise it to the original offence? Does it happen often?

Couple of questions regarding a 50 in a school zone 40

Hello

Thank you for your help in this matter.

I used to have an excellent driving record... however I now have two tickets on my record, and last week was pulled over so I am very concerned about my insurance, as I will have three.
