Unpaid Speeding Ticket in GA

[darrell]

UPDATE:

Well, I called the court house. Turns out there are no additional fees or penalties, they just want the original fine of $60. I was told I could send it in or drop it off, but considering my current status as a bonafide wanted criminal , I think I'll go the Post Office route and send it overnight with signature confirmation. Also, I called the DMV, and my license hasn't been suspended. I feel immensely better than last night, and I have learned two very important lessons: 1. speeding is never a good thing, but its especially not the brightest of ideas in Gwinnett County and 2. always follow up and get a receipt.

Thanks again for all your help :D

Post Office has turned bad in the last year. They have been losing mail left and right. I mail something and it never gets there, same if someone mails me something. Like Norm mailed me some patches and they never showed up. I will end up paying extra for everything I mail to have a delivery conformation on it.

You got REALLY lucky that your license wasn't suspended. It's supposed to be. Count your blessings, pay the $60 and have fun in OCS.

And don't forget that for a brief time you were probably an NCIC hit nationwide !

Do you still have the receipt for your money order? If so, put a tracer on it and see if it was cashed and send a receipt to the courthouse. If it hasn't been cashed, you'll get a refund.
