Pay it. I know you have to pay on the spot in some places in WI.

MustangRedline, dont listen to the craziness on this thread. Deal with it or you WILL end up with a warrant. About the time you go to race at the Rock, you will get stopped and it will screw up your whole day.

heck i've got tickets on uni that i haven't paid and they have never done anything.

[Roast'em]

I wasn't recommending he skip payment on it. That was just an example of my getting away with murder in Wisconsin.

send cash in the mail.

[JPD0244]

That is just stupid. Have you checked your DL status lately? That is not adviseable. At least show up to court and fight it. But to do nothing is guaranteeing problems in the future. That is a freebie to a cop. Hook someone on someone else's warrant. VERY little paperwork.

[JPD0244]

I would try to send a money order in the mail, yes. Call first. Easy to take care of.

[Roast'em]

you're smart JPD. We are dumb.

[JPD0244]

How dare you accuse me of that. No, I am not saying that Roast'em. Not at all. I am just saying that to do nothing and pretend the problem goes away is rediculous. It only compounds the problems. ease up man.

jpd i don't know if you were replying to me?
i think the 2 tickets i skimped payment on were a parking ticket, and a no front plate with a no seatbelt thrown in. all these happened 4 or 5 years ago. i have been pulled over various times since, and if i didn't have a DL i would be unemployed because my work checks that for insurance.

[JPD0244]

I cant speak for other agencies. I just know that if I wrote a ticket and it was not followed through on, it ends up in one of a few ways. NONE of them are good. I just dont want MustangRedline to create a snowball effect by not acting on something that is so easy to be done with. Not trying to offend you OR roastem. Just saying, take the initiative to fix it. And yes, I was replying to you.

[mnstang]

i agree he should pay it just so he doesn't have any surprises down the road or anything.
i simply didn't pay mine because i was a broke h.s. student and buying an offroad xpipe was more important to me than paying some tickets.

[JPD0244]

Dunno that I woulda done any different in HS either. My career requires a different attitude now. xpipes ARE important tho.

[Roast'em]

how dare you accuse me of accusing you!!

I'm serious though ME>> you>>

[JPD0244]

Somebody lied to you.

[Obscene1]

Well i plan on paying it.

And yeah they where gonna haul my ass off to the station (i doubt jail) but becuse my g/f was a wisconsin native i dident have to do anything.

Why is that? his words where as follows "Well becuse your G/F has ties to the community of wis you dont have to have to come to the station and post bond"

WTF i dont get that logic becuse my of that for some resaon they now trust me to come back and make the payment???

But thanks for the info JPDO Fyi i do plan on paying for it.
