Speeding ticket at airport

While at the curb picking up a passanger at the airport I was approached by an officer on foot. He knocked on my window and then told me he witnessed me speeding and gave me a ticket. I asked for proof which he could not provide, no radar gun. The airport was very crowded that day, bumper to bumper traffic, there's no way I was speeding. I went to court, requested a hearing, and faced the officer in court. The judge said he believed the offiicer, no proof required, and upheld the ticket. Where is the burden of proof? Should I appeal this? I feel like the county just wants the revenue.

The result may have been based on a myriad of reasons. Many factors such as prosecutor discretion, what judge you had, whether witnesses were credible all matter and that makes it near impossible to say whether an appeal will win out. However, you can cap your expenses by simply paying the citation and move on.
