Out of state tickets don't carry points on your license I thought? Well, in any case, fighting a ticket, regardless of what happened is a smart idea.
The idea goes you show up in court, the judge asks if you plead guilty or not guilty, so then you'll stand over by the not guilty group. Then you'll be told to go wait on line or outside until the prosecutor can speak to you about the ticket. He/She will ask you what happened, and which point you'll make the case. No matter what you say (Aliens were chasing me), you'll get no pity from them. They'll offer you a higher fine and no points, or you can take a chance with judge directly. 9 times out of 10, you will not sway a judge, they support the police unless you got a plunger jammed up your ass while being frisked (even then a judge may not be on your side).
So, long story short (too late) take the fine and suck it up. If you want to avoid the points, go with what I said, it's the way our society works.
Goodluck!
