To avoid waiting in line, it is recommended that payments be made by mail unless an appearance is required for your violation and/or you wish to contest your ticket. Payments may also be made in person.
Don't delay! Failure to respond by payment deadlines may result in increased fines and/or license suspension. Driving with a suspended license is a crime. A felony conviction may result in fines of up to $5,000, jail, probation, or confiscation of your vehicle.
Payments are accepted as cash, certified check, personal check, money order, MasterCard and Visa Credit cards are now accepted.
All personal appearances are scheduled at 9:00 AM unless indicated otherwise on a ticket or notice.
