Defendant appealed the decision of the Appeals Panel sustaining the violation of R.I.G.L. 1956 § 31-24-1 (times when lights are required). The Court held that the failure to sign the back of the traffic citation does not preclude the Court from sustaining the charge against the defendant. Accordingly, the Court sustained the charge against defendant.
