I would hire a lawyer to fight it.

The $1000 or so you might spend to fight the ticket will be less expensive, long term, than the increase you will likely pay with insurance. That goes double if you happen to have another incident like an accident or another ticket.

I know it sucks because, just because you hire a lawyer doesn't mean your going to win either. You might have to pay the ticket, get the points and pay the attorney.. But it's a chance I would take.
