Best Answer

The purpose of a statute of limitations is to avoid being charged with a crime years after it occurred. If Pennsylvania has already issued a ticket, so there is no need for a limit. The issuing jurisdiction can collect on the ticket at any point. It used to be common for places to have an amnesty of fines. But with the economy the way it is currently is, they probably won't be offered

There really isn't one. The ticket is your notice of violation. The purpose of the SoL is to notify the person of the violation within a reasonable time.

Traffic infractions are violations of traffic regulations - not criminal or civil offenses - there is no SOL on traffic infractions.

When you are issued a citation, you are required to either appear in court on a certain date, or to pay a fine by that date, essentially pleading guilty to the violation. If you neither appear not pay the fine, a warrant is issued for your arrest. Warrants are valid until served or recalled. They are not subject to a "statute of limitations."

A statute of limitations is to avoid being charged with a crime years after it occurred. A ticket has already been issued Pennsylvania, so there is no need for a limit. The issuing jurisdiction can collect on the ticket at any point. It was common to have a forgiveness of the fine on a regular basis, but with the economy the way it is, they are seldom offered.

In Pennsylvania there will be no statute of limitations associated with a parking ticket. The ticket itself serves as proper notice of the violation.

Parking is not subject to a statute of limitations. Parking tickets are not either. By issuing a ticket, you have been informed of the violation.
