You also have the right to have a trial, and you don't have to disclose your evidence and witness list ahead of time, as a defendant.
These options include, a) paying your ticket (which means you admit the ticket and it counts against you), b) requesting a Mitigation Hearing (which means you admit the ticket and it counts against you), or c) requesting a Contested Hearing (which means you challenge the ticket and deny you committed the infraction).
