I got caught going 55 km/h over in Alberta.
I was given a $350 ticket.
The cop told me I should pay the ticket because if I don't and it goes in front of a judge for non-payment it could result in a court date and larger fine because I was going more than 49 km/h over the speed limit.
Is this true?
