That's bull****, you shouldn't have to take a day off work and go through all that hassle.
I have huge respect for our Police, but honestly if I you were, I wouldn't play the polite angle at all when you go.
Seriously, just throw out the relevant questions to the judge in a "I know what I'm talking about" tone.
"Okay, so the first question I have is "What speed does the officer think I was traveling?".
"Is it true that there could have been black ice, that a car traveling a safe speed could be thrown off by?"
"Is it true that a car could easily end up in that position from a low speed spin out caused by a surprisingly bad patch of road?"
Make sure you make him answer your questions, and not just answer their questions the whole time, as there's a natural bias for the question answerer to sound more defensive and more wrong.
This all brought to you by the expertise of "Do you accept this fine as it stands? Yes, I do" flameswin.
