1. I don't have the ticket number for the red light violation citation I received. What can I do?

For the security of your personal information, this site will only perform searches on the ticket number. If you do not have your ticket number, you can call our Customer Service Office at 1-866-247-1951.

2. I think I may have more than one ticket. Can I pay all of them over the Internet?

Of course. If more than one ticket exists on your vehicle (same license plate, same registered owner), they will be displayed as a courtesy. You have the option to pay any or all of the tickets by clicking the box next to each ticket you want to pay.

3. Can I get a receipt for the ticket(s) I pay over the Internet?

Yes. You can print a receipt from your personal printer for payments made over the Internet. Once you have selected the ticket(s) to be paid, and entered the credit card information, click on the "Submit" button. Your credit card number will be validated and the amount of the charge will be submitted. If the card is valid and sufficient credit is available to make the payment, your credit card company will issue an approval back to our Web site. The payment will be applied against the ticket(s) immediately, and you will see the charge on your next statement. You should print the online receipt for your records, and if requested, you can be e-mailed a receipt by providing an e-mail address.

4. I do not feel comfortable in giving my credit card information over the Internet. Is this site secure?

Our Web site uses 128-bit encryption, which is the highest level of encryption available. This is the same security used on all Web-payment applications. For your security and assurance, this site does not store any information about your credit card. Once an approval or rejection is received, the information is purged from our system.
