If the sign were obscured enough that you couldn't really read it as you
passed it, I'd go to traffic court and at the very least, ask to be
allowed to put off paying the ticket until such time as the impediment
to viewing it was removed.

(I've never gotten a speeding ticket.  I have no idea why; I regularly
speed.  Most of it is going speed-of-traffic, though, although there's
no excuse for my habit of hitting 120Kph (which is 74 mph, but 120
sounds cooler) on MoPac, where the speed limit is 65mph/105Kph.  I
remember very clearly the first time I did it; I was trying to keep up
with someone who later gave a driving time from downtown Austin to
downtown Houston of 2 hours, so I shouldn't have been trying to keep up
with *him* in the first place.)
