SUGGESTIONS
In some locations, the F.O.P. badge on a corner of your license plate gets a more "forgiving" attitude from some constabularies.
Far less so with state Highway Patrols.
Valentine One, a sharp wide-angle eye, going with the flow, never being a lead-dog slot at the head of a caravan, watching truckers for cues...good preventive techniques.
Ultimately, for every ticket we get, there were a thousand others we could've gotten, but didn't.

After getting popped, the Prayer For Judgement plea, going to a Driver's Class, presenting a clean record for consideration, having the moving violation changed to a non-moving offense...all are common methods to negate the horrific effect of a conviction on your insurance rates.
Ask the Magistrates & local Officers for suggestions. They've seen and heard it all 1000s of times before. Sometimes, your outcome may be determined most by which Judge hears your plea, or what your local traffic court DA is like, or just how heavy the case load is in your municipality.
It is your local people that will decide, so I'd get by to talk with them now for information, way before court time. You may be very pleasantly surprised by the help you'll get.
