A speeding ticket in warrant status typically costs up to $613 dollars, including $420 dollars in fines, costs, and fees, plus a $193 dollar failure-to-appear charge. Through the program, the total cost can be reduced to $155.
“This program is perfect for people ready to pay their municipal tickets and start the year off on the right foot,“ Court Administrator/Assistant City Manager LaShawn Thompson said. “You will never be jailed if you voluntarily come in to address any warrant issued in Oklahoma City Municipal Court.”
