A girl at work said that If you over pay the ticket by like 5 bucks and mail it in they almost never complete the paper work because they don't want to cut you a check for 5 bucks. So they just let it sit in the file till its gone. She said she's done this twice and the checks still haven't hit the bank. But i'm skeptic.

as far as this one goes, i'd take it to court and tell them you were not only NOT going 55 but you were also entering a 55. I'd imagine they'll drop it. Alot of times they are just happy to get the court fee. I just hate that even if its not your fault you still have to pay a court fee.
Overpaying the ticket is an urban myth that isn't true. Good luck telling a cop you were 'entering' another speed zone as you were still in the 45. Your best bet is to go to court, admit you were wrong (even though the cop was being a hardass) and pay the fine. There is a good chance you will be put on probation or it will be deferred...

Damn I just got pulled over at midnight today. I was told I was doing 55 in a 45 too. As soon as i turned down my street he follows and turns them on. I pulled over and turned off the truck and started looking for my insurance and license. He comes up and asked where I was going in such a hurry. I just calmly replied home I just got off work and honestly I didn't know how fast I was going. So he runs my license and comes back and said I'm only giving you a warning. But i was expecting a ticket because the way he looked at me I thought I was screwed. I guess it does help to have a clean driving record. Nice cop didn't even make me get out of the truck or anything.

Yep, go for the course or deferred. I had a hard a$$ pull me over a few months back for 51 in a 45. **** hassled me on everything!!! I guess he thought I was some punk car club kid, cause of the Texas Truck Scene sticker. Had my front windows rolled down and he asked me why me why are my windows so dark. WTF?, the back can be painted black?!?!? But, I was screwed when he noticed my windshield was passed the AS1 line. $180 for tint!!!!

I thought they couldn't pull you over if you drive over a mile at the speed limite?
