It's not the JP (Justice of the Peace) you want to speak to, it's the Prosecutor. These people have the mind numbing job of dealing with thousands of speeding tickets, so this always works. Check off the 'not guilty' box on the ticket that says you intend to dispute the charges. Take it in or mail it in, whatever the instructions say, it's different for different areas. If they dont mail you something that tells you to call the prosecutor at a certain time, then just go to your court date, show up a couple minutes early, walk up to the front and speak to the prosecutor and politely and humbly say you made a mistake and you'd like to plea to 15km over the limit. If your ticket was too high, they might say no but offer you 29km over (or whatever it is). I've done this 4 or 5 times for myself and a couple times for friends and family. I've never had a prosecutor say that the wont take a plea to a lesser charge.

They know, just like everyone else does, that it's yet another driving tax. EVERYONE that drives breaks the speed limit, whether it's once in a while or all the time. If they had to have an actual trial for every ticket that was issued, the court system would implode. Think of how much they have to pay the prosecutor, the jp, the court clerks, the security and police on duty there, and how much time it would take up to have a trial for every little ticket. When you offer to make a plea to a lesser charge, they get you over and done with in 2 minutes. They have to run a trial for you, you're half an hour. The difference to them is dealing with 100 cases in a day, or 10.

I'd say go to where traffic court is held and see if you can talk to someone. Some places have a first appearance option(?) maybe then. You would talk to the prosecutor not the JP.
