US traffic infringement: my name spelt incorrectly - would you still pay?

I'm informed that in Australia minor errors in infringements do not invalidate them.
Depends. I know if a field is missing information you can challenge that based on a technicality.

Have driven in the US a few times but still curious about the rule about being able to turn right on a red (after giving way to traffic on the left ;) ) - is this fair dinkum, unless expressly stated otherwise or does it depend on which US state you're driving in?

Always feels a bit wrong to do it so generally I'll wait until I get a green light however if the car behind honks I'll go if the coast is clear.

Pretty much everywhere unless it says you cant.

Yes it is allowed in the 50 states unless prohibited by a red right turn light or a sign. Generally this means the turning from the right hand kerb lane into the right hand kerb lane after stopping at the red light and giving way.

I just did it heaps of times, because noticed everyone else was doing it too!
I figured if I got pulled over would just try my luck and plead dumb aussie.
 
Pay it. NSW Police can make alterations here to traffic charges, such as names, so I would suggest SFPD have the same option.
