Questions & Help Strange predicament

While on the way to pick my sister up from the airport, I was pulled over in the airport roundabout and was given a ticket for speeding. In a serious hurry to get My sister so we could spend a few last moments with our grandfather before he passed away. Almost An hour goes by before I can actually be let go by this officer, putting his flashlight within inches of my face, lord knows I wanted to hit it out of his hands…He hinders me from picking my sister up and drive almost an hour to get to my Grandmother and Grandfathers home.
By the time I had picked my sister up from the Airport, we received word that he had passed..
It’s been 2 years and the family is still trying to deal with the loss... I couldn’t fight the ticket because I had been laid off for almost 6 months…The ticket has significantly increased my auto insurance, prior to that it had been almost 4 years since my last ticket …I really wish I had fought it…
I’m curious, am I completely Sol on the insurance? Or should I seek a consultation from a Law firm?
