Not every state...
...works that way.
Yes, you can do that in New York. I have done it.
No, you absolutely CANNOT do that in Illinois.
Given that parking viloation revenue is not a big source of funding in WV (I would guess), I would not think you could do it in WV either...

If you wanna travel to the USA again--and not sure why 
--pay it, otherwise they can't touch you for a speeding ticket in Canada.
Which is why sometimes you need to post bond before you can drive off...BTW $300+ is very high for a 15 mph over speeding ticket..must be in Jerk County USA, lol

1) Yes speed traps are a travestyalexmst said:
2) (My real point) most traffic related failures to appear, and failure to pay fine are not extraditable offenses (e.g. Ohio will not extradite you from Kansas) therefore the arrest warrant generally won’t show up on record checks outside of that state. But the day you return to Ohio and for whatever reason have your name "run" up will pop that arrest warrant . . . .
3) In the State of New York, parking tickets are considered motor vehicle violations and count for drivers license points. This is not so in most other U.S. States where they are considered municipal ordinance violations or civil infractions.
That stretch of highway is well known for its radar traps. The cops have great places to hide, but everyone who knows anything about that area always slow down to exactly the limit.
I've driven that route about 100 times and never once got stopped unless I was tired and needed to stay at a motel along the way. (did that once)

I did not pay a speeding ticket in North Dakota (a border state) and after about a year they sent me a notice that my driver's licence was suspended in North Dakota. Oh well. I have entered the US at least 300 times since then, including through North Dakota, with no issues. I would ask Canada Customs and US BA directly, whether they care. They may not, and as Federal agencies they won't sympathetically try to "protect" the state police. That is one bizarre conspiracy theory. You will get an honest answer.
I'd pay it. West Virginia is crazy. Many (but not all) parts of The South are nuts and I wouldn't mess with them.
i got one in ny i cant drive in ny state they told me, i tried to pay it but they told me i could only pay it at courthouse which is 4 hours away near syracuse. i have driven in michigan with no probs but the ticketr was in 95
Well I just paid the ticket and be done with it,actually I called first to confirm that amount and explained to them what happened and I cannot come down there and fight the ticket and they were actually very nice and told me that ok we can do the ticket for $157.00 and I said ok a money order will be in the mail next day.
