What state are you in? ... in PA, from what I recall, one has clocked at 30+ miles over the posted limit to have their license suspended.
Driving 20 miles over the limit doesn't take that much really - certainly seems excessive for them suspend one's license for only 20 miles over - other than perhaps in a 15 mph school zone.
Did you plead guilty or are you going to challenge the ticket?
If the cop was using radar ... check to see if all certifications for both the radar unit and the officer were upto date.
If they were using vascar / timing ... check the distance used in to calibrate the timing device; check to see if it and the officer are properly certified.
If you were driving at or below the state's maximum speed limit for country roads (is often around 55 mph), then an approach to try is to challenge the speed limit itself - it's too low for the road; not easy to challenge a ticket this way, but is another option.
Lastly, the easiest option is to simply drive with a suspended license ... and one can sometimes even do so legally depending the laws of the state / and or judge; the courts are hessistant to take away one's livelyhood and thus often willing to work out an arrangement.
Good luck.
