take it to court with or without a lawyer. i have a friend that has gotten all but 1 of his tickets thrown out because 1) either the officer didn't show up 2) the ticket was not filled out correctly, therefore invalid 3) it is how the law is interpreted, so racing on highway should be thrown out because there was no other car involved and you were in a parking lot not highway. my friend was a TPD Explorer growing up and learned every little thing he could including the loop holes in traffic court. thats my 2 cents
