Can anyone tell me if its required to sign a traffic ticket in Iowa?
If one were to refuse, the officer likely would take him before a magistrate where an appearance bond could be expected.Can anyone tell me if its required to sign a traffic ticket in Iowa?

Signing the citation is not an admission of guilt, only an acknowledgement of receipt and promise to appear.
I guess I should rephrase the question. When a ticket is issued, do the officers ask you to sign or do you just get the ticket?If one were to refuse, the officer likely would take him before a magistrate where an appearance bond could be expected.

I've refused before & they just let me go ... otherwise they have to take you to the station ...
