Sometimes it's best to keep your accounts clean. You never know when you might visit that area again. Plus all agencies use computers to keep records which can last for 30 years are better. But if you are never planning on going back, then maybe not. Nothing that they can really do unless you return and they stop you in the future.
Good Luck

If you don't pay the $50.00 fine. America will place you on a terror watch list. You will be tracked by satellite and a AC-130 gun ship . A reward will be offered for your capture to your neighbors. You will be then sent to Guantanamo to take part in a military tribunal. Do you really want to be a terrorist and part of the axis of evil? Just pay the fine and your life will be fine.

'' No matter where you live, no matter who you are, the LAW applies for everybody!''
That's the way that the US people think about the laws.
Well that fine was cheap $50 for speeding is ok, sometimes those fines are really high expensive in some countries and cities.
But be very careful next time, try to not run alot on roads, or a police can catch you one again, and you'll have a points record in your driving license.

Legally, if you do not pay the fine, you have to show up for court. If you do not show up, then the police generally put out a warrant for your arrest and you are charged with "failure to appear". They won't 'go after you' in the UK, but should you return to the US and there is a warrant for your arrest on file, I wouldn't do any driving if I were you. Besides, that could come back to haunt you if the INS and customs find out through your ID check.

Amelia753 is correct.
This happened to me recently - only my fine was $200 !
If you do not pay it they will not come looking for you in the uk.
However, by not paying you will have missed your chance to avoid
a court hearing. If you get caught speeding or doing anything
illegal in the same state again then the warrant for your arrest
will flag up. If that happens you will go STRAIGHT to jail. On thespot.
I'm serious.
So it's up to you if you think you'll never go back.
Personally i would pay it.

From what I know about UK authorities, any extra work involved means the issue will be disregarded. Are US officials well known for going the extra mile, just for the principle?

You will get a few letters but, as I understand it, they cannot pursue it in any practical sense.
HOWEVER, if you ever go back to the states I would put a large bet on getting your collar felt when you arrive at immigration!
Personally I would just pay it and be done with it.

Yeah, I think they have a paramilitary task force that'll surround your house, and demand surrender. ..... No, I guess not.
The only repurcussions would be if you came back to the U.S. and were pulled over. In some areas, they may arrest you for failure to appear in court. (or payment) etc. But if you never returned, there'd be no repurcussions.

$50 is approximately £25, so just pay it and be done. At least its not £60 and 3 points on your licence (or worse depending on your speed!). Then you won't have in preying on your conscience.
