Hey, i'm 17 and live in Oklahoma. One day I was driving down the interstate and went past a police officer going 87 in a 70. The officer pulled me over and followed protocol, asking for my insurance, drivers license, etc. He went back to his vehicle and told me that my tag was expired, my insurance was expired, and that I was driving in a reckless manner. He wasn't friendly at all although I was very cordial.
I'm really worried about these three tickets, i'm a minor and the insurance is in my parents names. I had no idea they hadn't renewed it. So I basically got close to 400.00 in tickets and he gave me a date to appear in court. I can't pay the tickets and neither can my parents. I also cannot appear in court. Its over 3 hours from my house and its on a school day. I'm not sure what to do. What will happen to me for not paying these tickets? Will a warrant be issued for my arrest...if so, wouldn't I have to be pulled over for another violation for them to find out I had a warrant? I've had two tickets before, but they said they wouldn't affect my insurance and they've both been paid. I'm just not sure what to do about these three or what will happen to me? I don't even think its jouvenile court although I won't be 18 for 6 more months. Help me?!
