Re: forgot to pay a speeding ticket

Depending on the court, there may be an arrest warrant for a second crime, failure to appear, and there may also have been a license suspension sent to the state. In many courts, you could pay an additional amount and clear it up if you act quickly. In some you may be arrested. Regardless, the longer you wait to contact the court and resolve this, the worse it may get. Since license suspensions may not yet have been sent in, your best bet is early Monday morning.
