Keep on reading to find out everything you need to know about fighting a ticket using your ticket number.

What Exactly Is Your Parking Ticket Number?

The first step to understanding how to deal with a ticket is to understand what your ticket number is and what you can do with it:

1. Your parking ticket number is usually marked clearly on the piece of paper that the police leave on your car (often in the top right corner of the paper, but this can vary between states.) This number can also be marked as your “citation number” - both names mean the same thing.
2. Your parking ticket number will help your local office identify how much you owe when you pay the citation.
3. If you choose to contest the ticket, you will also be required to submit this number. Be sure to have the ticket number on you.

What Consequences Could You Face If You Leave A Parking Ticket Unpaid?

Leaving a parking ticket unpaid can be more trouble than it’s worth, which is why it’s important to contest or pay your ticket early on. Here are some of the problems you could encounter if you don’t deal with your parking citation:

The Courts could issue a bench warrant against you

• In some states, courts are authorized to issue a bench warrant for your arrest as a worse case scenario, this allows the police to stop your vehicle if they see you out on the road and to potentially arrest you.

Having your vehicle booted

• Leaving your ticket unpaid could result in having your car booted, and only released once your payment has been processed or contested.

Your fines could increase significantly

• Unpaid fines can accumulate interest, if you leave them for too long they can end up becoming double or triple the original amount.

Your driver’s license could end up revoked

• One of the worst case scenarios when it comes to leaving several parking tickets unpaid for a significant amount of time, is that you could lose your driver’s license through a court order.
