I would go, tell them you slowed down but did not stop, tell them you were careful of traffic. Plea your good safety record and clear driving history and let them know that you now know what the law is. Hope for the leniency they don't have to give and that current budget constraints don't encourage. But be prepared to just pay the ticket and forget it. Chalk it up to experience. I got a tint ticket in another part of Cali that was not fair, but I paid it and forgot it because it was not worth the journey to fight and the aggravation. Sorry you got singled-out. I drive closer to the speed limits because I worry about this kind of police attention.

I will rebuild Black and Green over decades as parts die, until it becomes a different car of roughly the same shape and color. My minimum fuel economy goal is 55 mpg while averaging posted speed limits. I generally top 60 mpg. See also my Honda manual transmission specs thread.
