Legal Question in Traffic Law in California

a UK tourist in California in a rental car, accidently, due to ambiguous road highway signs, ends up on a toll road for a couple of miles, until the first exit to turn round. Does not even realise that there was active toll booths in operation, as they were unmanned.
Hertz never even warned me about the potential for this happening.
On returning to the UK, receives at an old address some 3 months later, a violation letter from TOLL ROADS, for a $1.75 toll fee plus $57.50 penalty, and an additional $42 as the date for payment had been passed..due to the postal service.
My intention is just to ignore this now.
What are the potential repurcussions that may occur?

You might want to check with Hertz. They may pay the ticket and bill your credit card.
