Usually the options are listed on the back of the citation. Unless you have a must- appear citation, most can be handled entirely through the mail.

If the driver wants to dispute the offense, the only option is to appear for court, plead not guilty, and proceed with trial.

The police officer does not determine which offenses permit the defendant to pay a fine instead of appearing.

How do you write a good written statement to court to beat a traffic violation?
You don't...usually you have make an appearance in Court if you are attempting to plead not-guilty to a traffic violation. Once you plead not guilty then you will be scheduled for a trial. This will allow for you (defendant) to show proof the traffic citation was in error as a mistake of the issuing law enforcement officer. Be prepared to be cross examined by the Traffic Court judge, as it takes more time & energy to fight a citation than it does to pay the fine and/or traffic school. At least in California.
In Ky on a citation for traffic violations how do you know what is being charged Does all the charges have to be in the charges section.?
Unless the ticket specifies a mandatory court appearance, the cost of the ticket should be listed in the appropriate area. However, if this information is missing, the ticket is still valid; the court can tell you the amount of the fine.
What happens when you get a traffic citation?
You're given a date where you have the option to appear in court (unless it's a serous offence where appearance becomes mandatory), or else that date serves as a deadline to pay the fine. If you decide to just pay the fine, you admit guilt, and points are assessed against you. If found guilty in traffic court, the same thing happens. If you live in a state like Colorado, they'll also tack on a bunch of additional fees. For example, one of our drivers had a $400 fine for being overweight in a commercial vehicle. He went to court, talked to the DA, and the DA agreed to drop the fine by about $100. However, the court tacked on a bunch of fees which brought the total he had to pay to almost $700. If you don't appear in court and fail to pay the fine by the deadline, your licence gets suspended.
