Regardless of whether or not the ticket was justified, the question is whether it is worth a few hundred bucks to you not to have this worry.

I do many thousands of miles behind the wheel in many different countries and like most high mileage drivers, I pick up the odd speeding ticket here and there. Most - in fact probably all - of them are justified.

They are a minor irritation when I get them, but much less of an irritation than fighting uphill battles to get out of them. In most - if not all - cases it will cost you many times the fine to have it overturned, whether or not you really have been genuinely hosed.

Do yourself a favour and just pay it. It's just another road expense.
