I don't know about GA, but in PA the court costs are already figured into the ticket when you pay it. If you don't take it to court you're just paying the court costs for nothing! Did you get the names/numbers of any witnesses to the accident? If you can show the lane change was neccessary to avoid a worse collision, you could have a case. Also, if you could show the illegal lane change on the other driver's part started everything, that would help. There should be information on the ticket as to your court date or how to take the case to court, a phone number, etc. Again, I don't know how GA runs things. The worst that could happen is you take it to court and lose, and you end up paying the fine and court costs anyway. You're going to do that if you don't fight it.
