Hello

I think you should fight the ticket.

Your violation, for speeding, is an infraction.

Contact a local attorney or contact the court and start with a trial by written declaration. A competent attorney can handle the entire traffic court process for you, usually with great success.

An attorney familiar with the policies and procedures of the court will know the likelihood of negotiating such a resolution given the circumstances of your case.

Check with a lawyer in your locale to discuss more of the details.

Good luck to you.

God bless.
