What could be the consequences if you are late paying a traffic ticket in Florida?

Answer 1

If you are just late I'd contact the court and make arrangements. Otherwise your drivers license will be suspended for failure to pay fines and an arrest warrant will probably be issued for you. The court may wait very short time (within five days) before give out warrant. The sooner you contact the court, the better change the court will not issued the warrant. Most state can reissued the court date (but must prove why you can not make the last court date). If you are not an Indiana resident, your state of residence will be contacted. You will then have 30(if I remember correctly) days to show your state proof of payment or your license will be suspended.

Answer 2

If you think you are going to be late you need to contact the court, most of the time they will work with you and either give you more time or a payment plan. If you simply do not pay it, you could end up with a bench warrent for you arrest. Cops are not going to come to your house, but if you get pulled over with this warrent then they will arrest you and take you to the court to pay your fine.

Answer 3

You will get called to court, be sentenced to a few days (maybe even a month) in jail on the charge of "Failure to Pay a Fine," and be fined a higher amount than the original citation stated.
