a typo on a traffic ticket isn't really a defense. you'll end up wasting your time and paying more if you contest it. why bother. you're admittedly guilty and it's only $75. in my experience, speeding tickets in wisconsin start at $200.

Does anyone know if that is true? If it's not, I will just pay it because I haven't had a ticket for 5 years and it was only $75, but I thought if I could get out of it, might as well, right?
