Question and a warning

I will leave the name of the town out of this , but I wanted to see if anyone else has had a similar issue. On Friday 2/12 I receive an official legal notice (post marked 2/10) in the mail from a town in north NJ. That I had an outstanding parking ticket 3 am on 1/3. Okay , I was not there so there must be a mistake. It's my truck , my license plate but I can guarantee I wasn't there . Now here's the twist I missed the court date (since I never got the original ticket) so I need to plead not guilty by 2/10 (remember it was post parked that date and it's now two days later) or pay the ticket or have a warrant issued for my arrest on 2/17 . Great . I call the court . Repeatedly. For 4 hours . Finally at 3:45 pm someone answers, and we go over the ticket and informs me that the ticket is for my truck, no doubt . And when we go over it , it's for a black truck . My truck is light blue . Not dark blue , not black . The court clerks best response was , well the officer must be color blind . And goes on to tell me that since I'm now too late to plead not guilty , that I must pay ... Or I will have a warrant issued .

I paid the ticket because it does not make sense to hire a lawyer for a $55 ticket but still. This isn't the first time I've had an issue with this town actually . My work paid for a bogus ticket there previously. I've never had my truck in said town , no one borrowed my truck, it's a bs ticket!

Has anyone run into this garbage before ?!
