What happens if a ticket is not signed for a moving violation in California?

The only signature on a traffic ticket in California is that of the person getting the ticket. The officer is identified, and he fills out the citation, but he does not sign it. Here's the scoop. An officer saw you operating a vehicle in violation of the vehicle code. He pulls you over and cites you. The signature on the ticket is that of the person being cited - you. The signature is a promise to appear and answer the charge (made by the officer) and nothing more. That's all the signature is. If you refuse to sign the citation, the officer takes you downtown and your car gets towed. There isn't much middle ground. Either you promise to appear in court to answer the charges (by signing), or you are held in lieu of your failure to promise to appear (which your signature represents). Law enforcement types and the courts have been down this road before. Sign the damn ticket or cuff up. When an officer issues a citation, he is supposed to explain that the signature is just a promise to appear and not an admission of guilt. And it says right on the citation that it is not an admission of guilt but only a promise to appear. Don't be stupid about this one.
