Well, would you go to court and call the cop a perjurer if he had clocked you at 85mph in a 65 mph zone and written you for 74mph? I think it's a valid argument, as it's a case of an agent of the state lying in order to get you to pay. But we all know courts are corrupt and traffic enforcement exists for the purpose of raising money and little else. Basically, traffic cops are like the highway men of old England. It's just that nowadays we're allowed to pay by credit card a few weeks later rather than by cash on the spot. It's an imperfect world and I'd feel more protected paying the mafia, but that's what you gotta pay to keep out of jail.
