I still need to get a radar detector, but if you do get a ticket fight it. Fight EVERY ticket regardless of the seemingly hopeless circumstances. I've got pulled over countless times in the last couple years and 3 tickets in the last 2 years (1 was a 2 point excessive speed violation), and have a clean record still. If you get a ticket do this:
1. Wait for arraignment ... takes ~2-3 months
2. Ask judge for trial by written declaration instead of setting a court date (he has to agree) ... gives you 30 days to submit
3. Wait for trial by written declaration results ... takes ~2-3 months
4. If found guilty, submit a trial de novo ... takes another ~2-6 months
5. If cop doesn't show, you win. If he does, have your arguement well planned.
You still have to pay the bail, but this will extend your final court date by over a year from the ticket date. The officer will probably mess up somewhere along this process, or forget the incident alltogether by the time the court date arrives. I've beat 2 serious tickets this way.

When I was at court, my cop was 15 minutes late, so I almost won on the spot. A woman there had a ticket for 100mph + and her cop didn't show. The judge was stern about her infraction, but had no choice but to let her go. If my case was first (alphabetical order, I'm an S), I would have been gone by the time the cop showed up.
