Hi, I have some doubts about a speed violation comitted last april going by car from Las Vegas to San Francisco.
I am spanish but I am working in Mexico, and I was on holidays in California. So when I was driving from Las Vegas, and about 3 hours before arriving to San Francisco, I was stoped by the police...the speed limit was 70 mph and my speed was 96 mph.
The car was rented, but they don´t have my credit card.
The police send the fine to my Spanish address that I had provided a month later, and the amount was 410 USD.
Now, I doubting if pay or not. So my questions are:
1) If I don´t pay, what are the consequences. Do this kind of fines prescribe?
2) It is possible to appeal and try to avoid to pay it.
Thank you very much.What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)?
