What happens if I don’t appear in court and haven’t posted bail?

If you do not post bail and you fail to appear in court, a default judgment will be entered against you. Notice will be mailed to you advising you of the default. If you do not pay your fine, either a warrant may be issued for your arrest or your driving privileges may be suspended up to five years for failure to pay.
