Unless there's a small town with a population of like 12 people, 5 of whom are cops, and speed limit signs hidden by vegetation so you don't see it dropped from 75 to 45 for 100 yards and you get a ticket for going over 25mph over and don't have the option to take a driver's safety course to dismiss the ticket.
Want to challenge it in court? Okay. Drive 200 miles back into town between 1:00 and 1:05 on a Tuesday to request a court date that that will require you ro travel again that they'll ensure doesn't work with your schedule. Also the judge (who doesn't have to have a law degree) is one of the 12 citizens, and the remaining 6 are the jury.
Good luck!
