Of all my friends who have tried to fight tickets here in California, most lose. If the cop shows up, the judge usually just rubber stamps the ticket and could care less what the victim has to say.

Unfair tickets, speed traps, and inaccurate information on tickets breeds mistrust with the police. Too bad the police and city officials don't realize that.
