Frankly it is not worth the effort.
I got a ticket for unsafe start (I was turning, trying to get out of the way of another on-coming car). On the ticket it said I had a manual with a V8 engine when I only had a V6 automatic. It didn't matter what he wrote down as my car, still boiled down to my word against his as to what actually happened.
What I did not realize is that they would tack on court costs to the fine. :x
On the day of the ticket they asked who was pleading guilty or not guilty, those that were pleading not guilty were rescheduled for another day. So I waisted several hours out from work to go to both court dates and wound up having to pay even more. :banghead:
The only way it would be worth it is if the traffic cop does not show up to court. \

I would say that unless you have a witness to testify, just pay the fine. :2cents:
