What's so funny? Actually, I've been to traffic court like 6 times
when I was a teenager and drove crazy, and had the fines reduced to
the legal minimum or removed every time.
Sincerely,
Tyler

I absolutely disagree with what you're saying. Most judges are
reasonable, and put the burden of proof on the officer, not the
defendant- as is required by law.
The judge also has the power to adjust sentencing to make the
punishment fit the crime. For example, over a year ago in Oregon I
got a ticket for running snow tires out of season. What I was doing
was illegal, and I admitted it to the judge- but pleaded not guilty
(the only option which gets you to court) because it had in fact
snowed a few days earlier, and I had put the tires on just for that
snow storm, and had then been out of town and didn't have time to
change them back. The judge found me guilty, but reduced the fine
to the absolute minimum (from about $150 to like $10).
If you are professional, courteous and reasonable, and don't
contradict the officers testimony (calling him a liar) but instead
explain the circumstances surrounding your actions, most judges
will give you the minimum sentence the law allows them to.
