    parking tickets

    I got a parking ticket at the state wrestling tournament this week. Is there actually any consequence for not paying it? I was reading the ticket and it says a car with 4 unpaid tickets can be towed, this is my first one. It's also issued by a city that I don't plan on ever being in again for a long time. Anyway I was just wondering if I can be a cheapo and not pay a $15 ticket.

    I know in Cali, if you dont pay it, they'll just keeping doubling the fines, until it turns into a warrant.. then you'll get arrested and go to court and have to pay the fine before you get out of jail...

    Your choice.. I'd rather pay the $15

    yessir, just pay the $15. At least its not a big fine, but i understand that its an annoying one. If it turns into a warrant then that particular law enforcements' crime division will send out their "special police" units to carry out the warrant, even if it means traveling out of state. I know thats how they do it in Oklahoma.

    They wont send out a warrant unit to track down someone that hasnt paid a parking ticket..yeah, they'll issue you a bench warrant, and it will be on the states record. So if you were to get pulled over for something else, that will show up, and they'll take you in.

    Good decision to pay it.

    You never know where fate may lead you, you just might end up going back over there. If you get pulled over and a cop runs your plates, it won't help your chances of getting out of a ticket.

    Yeah I wouldve been happy to put more money in the meter too but there was a 2 hour limit. I parked there for like 3 hours to watch the wrestling meet.

    $15 is better than the embarassment of being cuffed in public and arrested when you get pulled over for something else and they run you & find you have a warrant. (Speaking from experience)
