if it's your word against the cop's word, the judge will likely side with the cop. it's this thing about judges and if they walk outside they could probably spot 15 moving violations, so the cops have a hard enough time without the judge second guessing their tickets. it sucks, but that's the way it is. the only other way you could attempt this is if you talk with the prosecutor beforehand, but if he doesn't agree to dropping the serious charges then just ask for a continuance so you can have the opportunity to consult with an attorney.

get a lawyer. it's the only way you have a chance in hell. check out some of the internet lawyer sites (for advice) which will basically tell you the same thing unless you can come up with some concrete evidence to support your story. use the words "fight speeding ticket" for a search of decent sites.
