How do I pay my speeding ticket? (I need specifics)?
I got a speeding ticket and I need to pay it. The ticket is from the Florida Highway Patrol for 9 mph over the legal limit. I know I need to mail the ticket in and I have the adress, but I'm confused about how I pay. It says "Payment should be in the form of money order or a cashiers check". Then below that it says "Personal Checks are Accepted" and "Make payable to the Clerk of the County Court". I'm confused. This means I can't send cash, right? But I can right a check. Right? But the thing is, I don't know who to make the check out to. I have no idea who the Clerk of the County Court is. I live in Santa Rosa county. Any help?

I would go to court...9mph over does not deserve a ticket. I think the cop was just trying to target you.

Just make it out to Clerk of the County Court right on the check- usually you can do it on line too. You don't need the clerk's real name.

Right, you can write a personal check. Just make it out to the Clerk of the County Court. They don't want you to put a specific persons name. They have an acct setup in the Clerk of the County Court so they just deposit it. Make sure you put the ticket# in the comment section of your check.

Don't send cash at all, send a money order, cashiers check or a personal check to...... Mary M Johnson Santa Rosa County Clerk of Court P.O. Box 472 Milton, FL. 32572 Traffic Infractions 981-5650

They prefer a money order or cashiers check because they try to avoid bounced checks. Cash is a very bad idea because it could get lost in the mail or pocketed and there is no way to trace it. A personal check is fine just make sure the money is in the account. On the back of the ticket it should say exactly who top make it out to. "The Clerk of the County Court" might be what you write in the space. Since no one here can see the ticket you need to figure that one out. Have you checked to see if you can pay it online? Most tickets you can now. It should say so on the back.
