Superman's comments are all the more reason to fight tickets. Take away the financial incentives to cities for bogus ticket writing. Regardless of what it costs you, the state or city makes no money from people who fight tickets.
Perhaps I should clarify about my record of beating tickets. A lot of tickets I have beaten were parking tickets -- not all moving violations. I've only ever lost two fights over moving violations -- and ironically, those were the ones where I really felt I had a strong case. I've had computer-generated bogus parking tickets mailed to me from Pittsburgh and Jersey City, both of which I beat. I see so many outrageous and unprosecuted incidents on the road almost daily, that I have little guilt for fighting a speedtrap ticket, when my only offense was going with the flow of traffic (always well above the speed limit) and happening to get caught in the crosshairs. If I'm such a dangerous driver, why have I never had an accident? Must be the quality of my cars.
