# Can I fight a speeding ticket without going to court in Rhode Island?

Yes. In most Rhode Island traffic cases your lawyer appears at the Traffic Tribunal for you, so you do not have to take time off work. You generally only need to attend in person if the case goes to a contested trial, which is rare for a basic speeding ticket. Most drivers never set foot in the courthouse.
