You should hire a traffic attorney to handle it for you so you don't have to bother with it. Our firm charges $95 for these types of tickets - so shop around. If you have a letter from your insurance company stating all claims have been paid, yes - very often the ADA will consider dismissing the ticket. You should not waste a PJC which stands for Prayer for Judgment Continued (it is not called a PFJ) on a minor traffic ticket. Also, you should not attempt to request a PJC yourself. The PJC is not something you are 'entitled to and is at a Judge's discretion and each individual Judge has their own standards and requirements for granting the request. If you don't know the Judge and what that particular Judge wants - you could be wasting your time at best and screw things up at worse. Best of luck.
