If you don’t already have a court date, ask for mitigation of the ticket by mail. If this is your first ticket you may be able to get it deferred (basically a lower payment to the court in exchange for keeping your driving record clean for a future period of time. I.E. probation). You’ll need to be careful in future though, because if you get another ticket you will then have to pay the full amount of both tickets. Other than that, you may be able to explain to the judge your financial hardship and they will possibly decrease the amount and put you on a payment plan for any fines levied. Good luck!
