Blountville, TN asked in Traffic Tickets for Tennessee

Q: I got pulled over in a "school zone" that the flashing lights were off and i didn't know kids were present due to covid

and received a ticket but the officer didn't ask me to sign it on the paper or on an electronic device. Does that mean an automatic dismissal in court since i wasn't asked to sign? Thank you

A: No. That is only an acknowledgement of the Citation instead of Arrest. You will need to go to Court in a respectful manner. Be polite about the lack of signature.
