What if I Don't Respond?

A failure to pay or respond to the ticket within fifteen (15) days results in an order that the infraction was committed. If you ask for a hearing and do not appear, your payment is due immediately. When an infraction is not paid in a timely manner or a hearing is missed, a $52 late penalty is added to the amount shown on the ticket. Your license may then be suspended if the penalty is not paid following a notice of failure to pay or appear and the account will be assigned to a collection agency.
