Pay the fine and court costs in full. You can usually do this online, by mail, or in person at the traffic court.
Make sure to keep your receipt for proof of payment.
Once you have paid the fine and court costs, the traffic court will dismiss your case.
If you do not pay the fine and court costs, your driver's license may be suspended or your car may be impounded.
Here are some additional tips for dealing with a lost speeding ticket:
If you find your lost speeding ticket after you've already paid the fine, you can usually get a refund for the fee. Just contact the traffic court and provide proof that you paid the fine.
If you don't have any proof that you paid the fine, you may still be able to get a refund if you can show that you made a good faith effort to pay. This could include receipts for postage or money orders, or a copy of your bank statement showing that you paid the fine.
If you have a hearing date scheduled for your speeding ticket, be sure to attend. If you don't show up, you may be found guilty in absentia and ordered to pay the fine and court costs.
