Ok so a friend of mine had to drive from Texas to Georgia. Right after getting on the freeway in Texas, she got a ticket for speeding. No Biggie. She planned on paying it when back home.

Fast forward to this week. Apparently her ticket was due yesterday. She tried to pay it online before but she could not manage. So she was going to mail it in.

However, when she called them, they told her that there is no guarantee that it will reach them in time, and that she may have a warrant out, etc

Question: What does she need to do? She is thinking to still mail in the payment, but is scared about having a warrant etc. Will a warrant in Texas (for speeding) show up in GA? Does she need to contact the courthouse in Texas and explain what happened? Does she need to get a lawyer?

Anyone who knows about this stuff?
I HAD SIMILAR SITUATION... BUT I WAS SMART ENOUGH TO OVERNIGHT THE MONEY ORDER TO PAY THE TICKET - THEN YOU GET RECEIPT OF PAYMENT.
