When this happened to me I went to court the next day and talked to the judge. I guess this all depends on what state you live in. I paid my fine, but they already submitted the paperwork for my license to get suspended. I ended up paying the speeding ticket and then going to the DMV with the receipt for payment. I didn't get an extra fine or point though. The best thing to do would be to show up in person and explain the situation, and go from there.

Go into the court clerk ASAP, for example in GA, where I used to be apoice officer, the judge would havev issued a bench warrant for your arrest ( it would not have been processed yet,) so you want that to stop from happening.
You need to get in and get a new date to appear.

Go to court tomorrow, and go before the judge. You probably have a bench warrant for your arrest. Your appearance will satisfy the warrant.
Bring a check book.

all you can do is contact the court you were scheduled in. you can also hire a atty and he can make bond for you.you can also be arrested since you missed the court date which means a warrant has been issued

Call them, tell them the situation, and they may let you come in and pay it without issuing a warrant.
