You'd be surprised, I recommend you look into it a little bit it's pretty disturbing how a simple traffic ticket can be a ticket to prison for people who are too poor to pay it.
- jrs235 11y agoNot to be too pendatic, but do you mean jail? Not sure how minor civil infractions lead to prison. Prison is usually for criminal infractions.
- jrs235 11y agoYes, multiple civil infractions can lead to criminal ones. That's what is suppose to deter people from habitually committing petty offenses.
- TrevorJ 11y agoDid you forget to log into your other account before you replied to yourself or.... I'm confused about what's happening here.
- snissn 11y agoI now may take solace in the hope that most of these awful comment threads are just the same person arguing with themselves!

- rand7773 11y agoIt can absolutely lead to jail. Don't pay the fine in time, suspended license. Driving on a suspended license? Arrestable offense. Miss your court date? Warrant. Even if you go to court and they put you on a payment plan, that gives you a few months to pay it, costs even more, and if you don't pay in time you've violated a court order. If you don't pay a probation fine in time, you can quickly go right back to jail to serve the remainder of your sentence.
