Absolutely and you better go to court on your scheduled date. If you don't the court will issue a Bench Warrant and next time any cop checks your ID, you will end up in jail.

depends on the law in your state, what the ticket was for, and sometimes, how old you are. In some cases, the ticket will be marked that you MUST appear. In other cases, you may be able to enter a plea of guilty by mail, and send in payment of the fine. Better read the ticket. And as the person above me said- if it says you must come to court, and you don't, you will have MAJOR problems.

∙ 13y agoIn most jurisdictions, you can pay a fine, which is technically posting bail, pleading guilty to the offense, and forfeiting the bail as the fine. Some more serious violations (such as speeding substantially above the posted speed limit) require a physical court appearance. You should call the court where your ticket is being handled to determine your options.

What are the factors that would cause state farm insurance to increase with a speeding ticket?
The speeding ticket itself is a factor as well as the amount of speed you were going. Basically, if you get a ticket for speeding, your rates will go up. In some states, they can't up your insurance if you take a traffic course in driver safety through the state, providing you take the course in response to the ticket. Nor can they increase your rates if you take the ticket to court and win your case.
