11. Yes you have the right to NOT sign a ticket and
then cop has the right to arrest you and take you in if he so chooses.
Resist the arrest? Meet Mt. Taser... or Mr T. For short. He pities the fool that doesn't comply.

The signature is merely an acknowlegment of receiving the ticket. It is not admission.
An officer usually can write "Refusal to Sign" or something else on the signature line as well.
Of course, laws vary by state so you'll have to look into it more personally.

All I can say is, Why not sign it?. Is it really worth agetting arested and taken in.
