My 1st ticket

Was in Ulster county NY yesterday about 20 min. From my stop. Turned down a road (no signage before turning down the road indicating bridge out or detour) turned down the road and immediately saw lots of signs saying goes "bridge out 1 mile a ahead local traffic only". I pulled to the side of the small 2 lane road, I put hazards on to try and figure out what to do. I walked ahead a little and saw a big warehouse with lots of loading docks. Since there was no safe place to turn around before the signs I decided to pass the signs (still around mile or so from the bridge) and turn around at the warehouse well once I passed the signs there was a local PD just sitting there waiting. He put his lights on and pulled me over (right near the entrance of the wharehouse) he asked to see my bills and once he determined I was not delivering to that wharehouse he wrote me a ticket for "disobeying a traffic control device" he said once I passed those signs I was breaking the law (unless I was delivering to that wharehouse then I would be considered local traffic.He then proceeded to tell me that "you truckers think you own the road and can go where ever you want your the 3rd 1 today" he took my paperwork, license, etc etc and then checked my elogs. He wrote the ticket and then said "your court date is ..... but since your not local you probably won't show up to fight it" and then he chuckled) I pulled into wharehouse got turned around and went on my way. Is it worth contacting a local attorney to see if I can get it reduced to a non moving violation? I have totally clean record and would like to keep it that way. He'll I wouldn't even mind paying a fine and curt fees if that meant my record stays clean

 

In violation of NYS V and T law. Section 1110a

 

I could feel it the whole time. It was obvious his job yesterday was to sit on that road and generate revenue
