The simple fact is its easier to just pay up.
I dont mean it in a sarcastic way, but life isnt fair. If you fight the case you just get the fine plus another couple of hundred costs.
I got a parking ticket once for £30 and had to pay another £50 because I took the ticket off my car and flipped it into the face of the traffic warden and drove off. I suppose at the end of the day I deserved it, but the guy ticketed me for being parked at 8-10am when the restriction started at 8am
Its petty, they are worthless human beings who serve no function in their work but to tax and swindle ordinary people with petty rules... but the law is the law.
Unfair, stupid, petty, pointless... there's still no point in fighting it.
Turn the other cheek, and find some way to cheat the state of the same amount they fine you.
Or dont do the last part, since that would be illegal.
