Go to the library and do an intense study on the law where the offense took place. Was it near your home? Was it in another state? Check on the road conditions for that day to see if they were dangerous and call the courthouse to see how many people got a ticket because of this. For instance, if it was the first day of rain in months, there is a lot of dirt on the ground and it becomes too slick for conditions. This really happened to me. I got a ticket for running into the back of another vehicle after they quickly stopped for a vehicle in front of them. The judge threw the ticket out. Get a free consultation with a lawyer and see what they say as well. Good luck!
(My college President was really good at getting out of paying tickets both in Florida and when he was in other states. If you are really desperate, I can call and ask him if he will tell you his secret.)

Best way to beat a traffic ticket that I know of is to not get one in the first place. After that, the only other thing I can recommend is to do your homework on the violation, prepare a really good statement as to why you did it, then cross your fingers the judge buys it. My city judge loves people that try to fight tickets because he lets them think they are getting off with the ticket. After they get done disputing the ticket or giving their excuse as to why they committed the violation, WHAM, he finds them guilty and then imposes the maximum fine for the said violation.

If you are guilty and nothing short of an acquittal will satisfy you, you're probably out of luck. But you can make the best of a bad situation.
If you were polite and compliant during the stop, you could try contacting the officer to ask for a reduction in which you would pay the same fine amount, but avoid adding points to your license. That way, your insurance rates are not affected. If you were rude or non-compliant during the stop, you could still call the officer to apologize and make the same request.
In either case, if the officer denies your request, you might as well cut your losses and pay up unless you get some cheap thrill out of going to court and losing there.

If you lay it on the ground...sometimes you can use your foot to stomp on it. You could go all "Office Space" on it and use a baseball bat. It's still going to exist in the court system, though. The best way to beat traffic tickets is NOT to get them.

You can't really. But there is a service that gives you access to an attorney from a top law firm who will go to court for you or with you to help you reduce or eliminate the fines and the points. Have you heard of Pre-Paid Legal? They've helped me out of several ticket jams in the past. check the source.

You can't beat a ticket. One way or the other, it is going to cost you.

request a hearing, you'll get a chance to watch the incident on video maybe then plead you case. don't need atty- read the back of the ticket & it will tell you how to request hearing

Look at this. I'm guilty but I want to beat the system. "I want to be like OJ." Since you are guilty, why don't you pay your fine and stop driving like a moron.
