DIY: use trial by declaration if you get a ticket!
Excuse me? What you're doing is taking what I said out of context to try to make me look bad. Op's post clearly encourages breaking the law:
Besides that, what OP posted, along with many other "get-out-of-a-ticket" techniques are well known and documented within the law enforcement community. I wont even get into the grey area of interpretation and misinterpretation that admittedly people try to exploit and are sometimes successful at. Personally, I would pursue your case more aggressively for trying to weasel out and not be a man about it.
My point in case, is that it would be easier to have not broken the law in the first place rather then trying to play the game.

your best bet is request for a discovery for the radar and the survey of the road you where pulled at.
if they dont give you the info you can contest that you cannot properly defend yourself due to withholding evidence.

How do I go about doing that? Ask the court in writing? Also, no traffic school cause I was supposedly doing 31 over the limit right? I also wanted to change courts. I got ticket in upland but I stay in long beach.

you can request a change of venue, but if your goin for trial by declaration. you just mail it in with the full bail. to request a discovery you mail it to the district attorney or the city attorney. the form is online along with an example. google red light camera and it should be there along with example.
trial by decs have about a 30% higher chance of getting dismissed due to lazy cops not mailling in their portion
i wasnt so fortunate. if your ticket is over 25 mph above the speed limit you cant do traffic school
