Tucson speed camera ticket for out-of-state driver

Over the holidays, rented from Hertz in TUS, had a beautiful vacation but got flashed by a speed camera on River Road. The traffic enforcement company (Pima County appears to contract this out) got Hertz to reveal my identity (for which Hertz charges me $30 "administrative charge" - annoying but it was a cheap rental and that's not worth time to argue about).

If the ticket were a reasonable amount, I'd just pay it, but $236 for 11 mph over the limit is rather extreme. From what I read online (I know, worth what I pay for it) you can ignore the ticket unless you get properly served by a human being. Now I'm not advocating trying to play hide-and-seek with the process server, but I am wondering if they will try to serve me as I live out of state?

I'm not sure there is any good forum in which to ask this question, because those of you who live there don't have the "out of state" experience but this is such a varied and helpful community, I'll try anyway
