No one can make you pay it just like any other unsecured debt.

It will however end up on your credit report and they will add on a bunch of fees almost equaling the ticket.

Your call as to whether or not it's worth it.

Did you run the light?

Nope. I used to pay them then stopped many years ago. Multiple since then and nothing comes of it except a few invoices mailed to the house.

This is where being a stable and mature (age) adult begin to pay off. If you have all your finances in-line and have no fears for emergency financing then the credit ding is trivial. Just got to wait it out 3-7 years.

I would dispute the credit report under “no contract signed so no obligation to pay” strategy.

Throw it in the trash. You may get more fear mail, but there is nothing they can do.

Nope. They will mail you about 10 letters though.

The vast majority of these are yellow that turn red while part of the vehicle is still in the intersection for a millisecond. They can frick themselves and you can too.

You know what the right thing to do is? No have a Brave Cave where you beat confessions out of citizens... No suing your constituents who are trying to branch out and create a better city because you turned the last one to shite... I could go on for days about "the right thing to do"

No. But if you go to court for any other offense they’ll bring it up and make you pay it then. They will not send an officer to your house to satisfy your kink and jam a baton up your arse
