From my own experience (again, I've gotten plenty of tickets), I can pretty much recite the whole thing about signing the ticket. I didn't hear it on this video, but the officer always tells the driver "signing this is in no way an admission of guilt, but is merely a promise to respond to the citation by the court date marked in box C". I've never asked what happens if I didn't sign it, because I don't blow off moving violations. When I got nailed in the desert, it was US Park Police and he had a very conspicuous taser on his belt, stood behind my car and yelled to me what to do. It's a little dicey out there in the desert. You can go for miles and not see another soul (meaning no help available) or you can get run over by someone with hwy. hypnosis who never saw you. In the middle of a busy road is no place to be wrestling with a non-compliant subject who appears to be walking toward your driver side door. The driver sure seemed to be fine once he was in cuffs, as he wouldn't shut up and didn't make a peep about the pain.
