Ya Ya I know. Of all the times I've been pulled over I was actually issued a ticket! Apparently being coy and cute only works on the CA highway patrol.  :p

So I got a ticket for doing 32 in a 20 near work. Admittedly I wasn't paying attention so I don't really know what my speed was and I wouldn't really have known what it was anyway since I was in Eddie's truck with oversized tires so the od is off a little (apparently this little fact didn't impress mr police officer either). I also didn't realize it was 20, thought it was 25.

NOBODY does 20 in this zone and even the cop said that he doesn't know why the speed is that low but he was there because some of the residents and nearby hospital had been complaining and warned me that they would be in the area for the rest of the week (wasn't that nice of him).

I have heard that sometimes just by showing up to court tickets are sometimes thrown out, cop doesn't show up etc. Obviously the easiest thing to do is to just pay up and accept the consequense of breaking the law (even if 20mph is ridiculous!) but if there is a chance of getting out of it should I try?
