ticket/summons...?, question :D Options

So I drove from NJ --> NYC/upper west side --> LaGuardia --> NYC/chinatown --> NJ just fine with almost no problem at all...

However, I was dropping my friend off at the hotel so she could check us in and was trying to find parking on Bowery St. I decided to park in front of the hotel and was just getting out of my car when this guy pointed out the busstop sign next to the sign that said it was ok to park there after 3am, so I got back in to move the car. I saw another parking spot down the street and moved like.. maybe just 3 feet when a f*cking cop taps on my window and pulls me over for not wearing a seat belt.

Wtf, ok so I should have put one on, but I literally didn't even move a full car length from my parking spot. So now I have a summons or ticket or whatever. Either I pay a $120 fine or plead not guilty and do the whole show up at court thing. Then, to top it all off, not 1 minute after getting the ticket, another cop taps on my window, trying to give me a parking ticket. I was like "wtf, i just got pulled over" and she gave me a nasty look. Bitch.

Anyways, my hot uncle (who's not blood related ) told me to just pay the fine since going to court takes a really, really long time and isn't worth it, while my aunt says that I should just go to court.

Have you ever gotten a ticket like that? What did you do?

yeah i'd just pay it, i agree with michael, i've never heard of anyone actually winning. i mean your a female so the judge is gonna just assume you're a terrible driver no matter what you say.
