Do they let non-lawyers represent clients in Georgia traffic courts or do the authorities vigorously pursue those engaged in the unauthorized practice of law?
And off topic but since Fromm started and I won our bet will I be getting the keys to the duck blind anytime soon? It got much cooler here yesterday and hence was on my mind again.
Sorry for so many questions.

What was the exact wording of the bet? Would you like to enter a transcript to the court as an exhibit?

I've seen some strange things depending on how tight of a ship the Municipal Court Judge runs. Generally, no, you'd be shut down. I have a Judge who lets parents talk on behalf of minors occasionally.
To the OP
Louisville is way out of my range, but it'd be worth it to find somebody to represent your son. You can absolutely get it pled down to a lesser ticket and avoid a lot of consequences if the prosecutor will negotiate a deal and the Judge not reject it. I did one down in Dooly County earlier this year with very similar facts, except it was in Probate Court.
My favorite war story from ticket-lawyering' is a judge in Wilkinson County who makes offenders write an essay about the dangers of their behavior as part of their sentence. It's pretty effective.
