what a friggin joke. I got a $95 ticket for going 35 in a 25 so I went to contest it thinking it was the same deal as MA. you show up, plead your case to the magistrate, and then if they still want you to pay it then you pay, no added charges. nope, not in RI. first of all you appear in front of a judge and have to enter a guilty, not guilty plea. WTF? you automatically pay a 35 dollar court fee, and then they added a $50 charge because I had got a ticket in the last couple years. if I had just paid the thing and not contested it all i would've had to do was pay the 95 bucks, but nowhere on the ticket does it make any mention of this.
