Call and examine any witnesses you have.  Ask questions that help them state the facts clearly. You may also present any evidence you might have to support your defense.  This may include, but is to limited to, photos, recordings, or evidence which you collected during the traffic stop. 

Give your closing statement. Here you can point out any weaknesses in the prosecution's case.  Emphasize your strong points and use this step to tell the court why you are not guilty.

Wait for the verdict. The judge, or in some cases the jury, may find you  not guilty, lessen your fine or find you guilty depending on how effective you were during the trial.
