Essentially I screwed up.
I was going east driving straight towards a red light.
I stopped at the light and waited. The north/south lights turned red and I drove, before my light changed green. I'm not sure why.
Of course, there was a police car right behind me and he pulled me over.
Honestly, I don't recall going through a red light (in my mind it was green) but I could be wrong and I understand that's not a defense. The officer said he had it on camera.
I was given a $180 ticket for "red light - fail to stop."
Do I have any defense here?
Is it worth fighting or should I just pay it?
