Go to court.
They usually do traffic at night.
You'll save enough to make it worthwhile.
Or even beat it?
Tickets suck!

To answer your question......there is no difference.

if u want to just pay it and make it go away click guilty. to fight it go to court. I'd say pay it and take some traffic school if u can and make it go away.. good thing is u'll only have to deal with like the 2 hr class as apposed to my 8hr I had to take last time ****** red light cameras... always lie..

If you mail in a not guilty plea you will incurr court costs even if you don't show up for court. you would then also be guilty but it would buy you a little time.

If it is points involved, go to court, you might get the fine, but the points usually drop..

most cops dont like to go to court for this kind of crap, i have friends that will fight every ticket and usually get off because the cop wont bother to show up.
