I think genec's got the idea. To fight a ticket, first look up the statute you were cited for allegedly violating. If you're guilty, just pay the fine, go to traffic school (often good for gore films), or do whatever might be appropriate. If you're not guilty, go to court and articulate why the elements of the violation don't match with the actions you were cited for. I'm always amazed why people bother hiring a lawyer to fight a piddly violation...it's like chopping off your arm because you've got a wart on yout thumb...you usually end up wasting more money, time, and effort than if you'd paid the fine in the first place.
