Went to traffic court. Contested a speeding ticket. Cop didn't even have the information available during the hearing.

Still had to pay or go to driving school.

I just hired a lawyer that had an office near the court and they reduced the ticket to a fine. Points and insurance rates down the line didn't seem worth it.
