I've fought traffic tickets in Colorado, New Mexico, New Jersey, Iowa, and Illinois (yikes!) with varying results. In Colorado, they plea bargained. In New Mexico, I just called up the judge and we had a little talk ("I didn't mean it, your honor"). In new New Jersey, where I really was innocent, I was dragged through hell and back and found guilty. In Illinois, I found an attorney who's "good friends" with all of the traffic court judges and 50% of what you pay him go into the judges pockes.
In other words, it really varies state by state.
