Yes, by paying online you are pleading guilty to the charges indicated on your citation
just as if you had appeared on your court date and provided payment in person.
In addition to your acknowledging your guilt and willingness to pay the
fine you are also agreeing to the notation of the violation on your driver's
record and any applicable points.
