Best of luck. I hope the officer decides that it's not worth the trip to the courthouse....

Down here we got them fix-a-ticket places that make your traffic violations go away. Some make you pay $80 up front and then no worries. Others will hammer you for $300, but either way, no points & no pain.
I've never used one, but my oldest brother has a couple of times.
If you have those up there & want to use it, you might be able to ask the judge if you can re-scedule your court date so you can secure proper representation. They shouldn't deny you that opportunity.
