I think it has to do with how you act and how you approach the
situation. For example, I always file a discovery request for the
officers notes, bring signed affidavits from any passengers with their
complete story, bring relevant photos and maps of the scene/car/etc, and
generally act respectful and professional- and I also generally have a
very good reason for why I was breaking the law (or else I wouldn't have
been doing so- right?). I will also get a new haircut and wear a full
business suit or very nice clothes. The judges are also often very
interested in my scientific research, especially if I was driving
somewhere related to it at the time. The cops generally look unprepared,
unprofessional, and insincere in comparison and the judge can see that.
Generally they don't even remember the exact incident and their notes
don't match their testimony very well.
Twice I've gotten tickets and instead of payment I sent in a copy of the
relevant law highlighted along with a note to explain why my actions
were not legally in violation- and they chose to dismiss the case
without going to trial.

when I was a teenager and drove crazy, and had the fines reduced to
the legal minimum or removed every time.
