i got a speeding ticket in a school zone but i wasn't speeding.. there was a cluster of cars around mine at the time and i know it's because they clocked the wrong car...how do i prove it? how will the judge know? at this point i'm terrified to go up against law enforcement especially with no concrete evidence but its not like i had a crystal ball to know to bring a camera along with me... should i chance this?

Your story, the officers story, decision.
If you can place a "reasonable doubt" into the judges mind and that of evidence before the court, you can win.
If a cluster of cars were around you car, how did the officer SELECTIVELY say it was YOU.
You don't have anything to lose. If you fight it and get found guilty, you are in exactly the same spot as if you didn't fight it at all.
The officer will have to testify that it was your car that was speeding. He will have to say how he clocked you (radar, laser, etc.).
Then you get to testify if you want and tell your side. Then the judge will make a decision.
Most chances are that the officer had a video camera also which would have captured your violation.
Good luck in court.
If you can't prove it wasn't your car then unfortunately you'll have to pay the ticket.
You can, but unless you can prove it wasn't your car, you're going to be found guilty.
Why are you terrified?
