First Time Getting Pulled Over in Hawaiʻi — Cited for Excessive Speeding + No License, Need Advice

Last night in Hawaiʻi I got pulled over and cited for two violations: driving without a valid driver’s license (HRS 286-102) and excessive speeding for going 30+ mph over the speed limit (HRS 291C-105(a)(1)). I’m an international college student (will be flying home next month and my student visa will expire next month as well, June 2026) my case will be on June 15th and this honestly shook me hard because I’ve never been in legal trouble before. The officer did not arrest me, but I now have a court date and I’ve been stressed thinking about the consequences, especially how this could affect my future, immigration record, insurance, and career opportunities. I know what I did was irresponsible and dangerous, and I’m not trying to justify it. I’m mainly trying to understand what usually happens in Hawaiʻi for first-time offenders in situations like this and what steps I should take next.

I am very nervous and I do not have any family and relative here on the island and I do need a SERIOUS help and assistance with this. I need a SERIOUS help and assistance with this.
