I got a speeding ticket for going 84 in a 55mph zone. The State trooper gave me the ticket and had me sign something about an I-Bond and 7 days to pay by mail. I'm confused as to what I'm supposed to do. What is an I-Bond? Do I pay right at the Sherriff's office ASAP? The back of the ticket says I can't pay for 10 days. What's going on?

An I-bond means that you were released on your signature instead of posting a cash bond, or your license. The instructions are conflicting. I'm sure there is a phone number to call, or a web site to connect to. Either way, do something within 10 days. Failure to comply, could result in a suspension, or a warrant.

An I-bond is insurance u buy to keep you out of jail and allows you to continue driving up until your court date. It allows you to keep your drivers license instead of them taking it away from you. Search "I-Bond Speeding" on google and you should get more info on it. As for the paying part, I don't know how that goes. Is there a number you can call? Or else go to the courthouse or wherever u take care of fines like speeding tickets and they should be able to give you more information. I hope this was helpful. :)

You were going more than 25 over the speed limit which I believe consists reckless or excessive speeding. An eye bond (I-bond) is insurance you purchase to allow you to get out of jail and keep driving up and until your court date, at which point whatever penalty is assessed is applied.
The link below explains it better.

usually you will have a certain number of days to pay, like 7 days, but if you want to fight it don't pay and go to court. You are not automatically guilty and you have the right to a day in court if you want it. I-bond means you have to send proof of insurance.

usually you have to pay the fine and be on your way. You can take defensive driving courses so that it wont go on your record (which increases your insurance) Just call the court on the back of the ticket and ask them how to pay.

Take it to the District Court where the offense took place. Pay the ticket there.

it's usually a good idea to make sure you understand something before you sign it... but anyways there must be a number on the form to call so call that number if not I would call the court house or the police station they would know who to call...

I'm more curious as to why the hell you were doing 84 in a 55. I can understand 60, maybe 65, but 84?!? Are you insane?
