What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Kentucky

Speeding ticket (10 over) issued to me on 5/18. This ticket was payable and due on 6/13. However, I lost my job on 6/6 and did not pay the fine. I used my last check to pay my utilities instead. I want to turn myself in, however I am afraid of the unknown. I now have the money to pay the ticket, although I do know that I am probably on a FTA by now. How should I proceed? I am a single Mom, which I know is of no concern to the court. Will I be arrested when I show up to pay? I need to know whether to take my daughter to another State to her Gparents, since I have no family local. Stupid, stupid, stupid, I know....but, Im trying to make this right. Any advice?

This means what exactly?

It is never a good idea to ignore a ticket, there is no excuse for that. If you had issues you should have contacted the court - which is what you should do NOW.
