I did not sign the ticket. Can I get out of the ticket?

One of the basic tenants of law is "Notice". This means that you have been legally notified of a pending court matter. In the criminal law sense, notice is given by signing or receiving a ticket or being arrested. If you refuse to sign a ticket, you could be arrested to prove that you were notified. Can you get out of the ticket for that reason? Maybe. However, if you do not show, they will suspend your license. You also have a right to a jury or bench trial on your case. Believe it or not, it is very difficult to fight a speeding ticket. Your best bet may be to plead Nolo Contendre (no contest -- will not be a conviction on your record, points on license, but can only be done with Judge's permission and once every five years), or Defensive Driving School. As with all court cases, no matter how minor, you SHOULD contact an attorney to assist you and counsel you on the particular facts of the case.
