Anyone been to traffic court?

A friend of mine got a red light ticket from the Pensacola PD. The photo they sent her shows her running a yellow light. It's her second red light ticket and the fine is pretty hefty. I've never been to traffic court in the South. Up north, anyone in traffic court had a chance to meet with a prosecutor and plea bargain it down or ask them to dismiss it. Then, we would go before a judge and get a ruling. I have no idea how it works here. She's on a fixed income and the fine could be pretty tough on her. I don't really have any idea what to expect when we go in there in a few weeks. Any light you could shed on the situation is greatly appreciated.
