If it says you have to see a REF, you'll probably need to go in.
If it says correctable, you can get its signed-off.

Here's a list that may help you

If the ticket has 27156(b) then you probably need to see the ref. That's what my ticket had but the cop also put a sticker on the back stating I do need to take it a ref.

Damn! So you got the ticket signed off for the modified smog? Do you have a hook-up? (Don't have to answer).

Been thru this recently got LTs and twin 15 lb bottles of go juice that is visible and technically illegal on my truck. Cops made a big ole stink over it at time of getting cited threatening to tow truck blah blah. I paid few hundred dollars in fines over the court Internet site never even had to go near court house or ref.

Unless they passed a law while I was gone for 3 yrs... NOS isn't illegal to have.
Only to use on public roads.

Glad Ryne posted about his experience on just paying it.

You guys are probably used to it, but while out of state I bought a 3rd gen. I got the major evil eye from every cop I passed in that car. I drove my 4x4 the same as the TA and got completely ignored. -I'm not young and don't have a lot of hair so no profile there to match either. I started driving the GTA more like my age just to stop getting pulled over..... I had to sell it so I wouldn't lose my license.
