Is there any merit in what they are saying, or should I just go and pay the ticket as I originally planned?
School or playground zone tickets are very hard to beat, i suggest you pay and fight the next battle. The only time i have had success on those is if there are mitigating circumstances and I plea with the cop on the scene.

In any case, you need to have some sort of mitigating circumstance to plea a case. You cannot just ask for a discount!
