I wouldnt take a chance on the fact that the cop won't show, they will. They almost always do.
On the note about revenue, like I stated before, you're going to pay the fines in the end--no doubt about that. What you want to avoid is the points, because if you do get the points, your insurance will skyrocket, plus if you get 6 or more points, you have to pay the driver assessment fee. So for your 6 point violation, you'll be paying $100/year for 3 years (total $300). [

Good luck, let us know how it turns out.
And on a side note, get a valentine 1 radar detector. It saved my ass driving up to boston this weekend when there was an accord trying to race me. We did. However, my v1 picked up a cop and i slammed on my brakes and he flew by the cop
