You can outsmart yourself. If you object to the citation, the solicitor will (probably) simply withdraw it and probably recharge you by accusation, and possibly be tougher on you than he would be otherwise.

You should hire a lawyer and determine the best strategy which may or may not be to focus on that.

Not likely. Simple errors are generally not a reason to get a dismissal, especially if they have nothing to do with the violation (which you failed to tell is about).
