Pled guilty for "failure to reduce speed/accident", assigned traffic school/court supervision, still have to pay initial ticket?

Before you go any further, you should speak to an attorney. Your admission to failure to reduce speed could wind up as a problem to you if there is a civil suit in the case later on. It may not be too late to vacate your plea. Although right now, you still have a fine to pay, you are better served by speaking to a traffic defense attorney. The ticket as it stands will not be wiped from your record but it is not considered a conviction.

You should be paying only $185, but to make sure simply call the court clerk and ask them how much you owe for your fine. By the way, wiped from your record means it's not part of your driving record as far as violations against your driver's license and insurance and other persons are concerned. It will still show on your abstract for certain requestors and there will still be a paper and computer trail at the courthouse. The good news is these types of traffic violations do not normally come back to haunt you.

It would seem that you should only have to pay the $185, but, you should contact the court clerk to confirm. You do not want to fail to pay the proper amount, as it could effect your Driver's license. You may also want to consult with an attorney to make sure that you have followed the court's order properly. It is always better to make sure all the details are fulfilled.
