Thanks to a recent post, I got to thinking...

If you've ever fought a traffic ticket, why did you do it? No judgements here (or against the poster of the previous thread), just curious. My thoughts after the poll...

Edit: My ticket was for speeding... 50 in a 35 mph zone. The thing is, I was caught on radar and the street I was on was not posted "Radar Enforced". So I thought that I could beat the ticket on a technicality.

Then a friend asked me a simple question: "Were you speeding?" Kinda stopped me in my tracks. Luckily in CA we can take traffic school to wipe a ticket from the driving record, so I took that option.
