    You won't go to jail over a traffic violation. Most likely a default conviction would have been entered and possibly a surcharge to the fine.

    Check with the court on Tuesday. Some courts are lenient and will allow you to schedule a new court date. One time I saw a substitute judge issue arrest warrants for all who failed to appear. That was an extreme circumstance, though.

    Well here in Atlanta, they issue a bench warrant for you for failure to appear. ( the ticket is a court summons)
    Now you are allowed to post bail ( normally the amount of all of the fines and court costs) and just go on your way. And be given a new court date
