Maybe. Some states assess "points" from the offending driver's license, which will increase the incentive to fight the ticket. There are great defenses to ticket camera red light tickets, including the lack of proper engineering. For more info on these defenses (and a traffic attorney listing), I suggest www.motorists.org (The National Motorists Association). A great deal of the info on the website is free, including the attorney referral. P.S. To increase your morale, I will add that I have successfully defended a photo speeding ticket--defense of camera tickets is possible!

Can a lawyer really get me out of a speeding ticket?
A lawyer may be able to get you out of a speeding ticket. If your driving record is clean and there is any type of discrepancy with the reason you recieved the ticket. For example, a discrepancy with the posted limit, the radar gun or the weather may all be enough to get you out of the ticket. However, for a lawyer just to be in court with you is not enough. It depends on the situation. They will do everything in their power to fight the ticket or get you out for as little as possible. Lawyers aren't cheap though.
