It's a tough decision because it is probably better to just pay it and move on; however, on the other hand if you did fight it, you could get it dismissed and if you ever park there again, you won't get a ticket. If you DO fight it, don't get a lawyer, just go there and explain everything. One time my Uncle got a ticket for doing 65 mph in a 50 mph on the highway, but there was NO sign stating the speed limit, so he fought it and went to court because cops used that spot as speed trap when it was really a trick becaue there was no speed limit sign. It was funny, because the judge of his case said that he faced the same problem in that spot, so my Uncle won his case, it got dismissed and the VERY next day, there was a speed limit sign in the location of the highway my uncle was at. So it might actually be worth it to fight it to prevent it from happening again and to teach a rookie a nice lesson early in his career so he is not cocky and knows that HE was wrong. Just my input. Later, Jeff.
