&gt; It&#x27;s so common as to be a normal thing that people pick up traffic fines.<p>And so we should just not try to collect on legally owed fines imposed for breaking the law?<p>&gt; Lose a little mail, wait a little time, and bam you&#x27;re a violator<p>If you had a due date to pay a fine... and you didn&#x27;t pay that fine by the due date... then yes, you&#x27;re a violator. Not sure how that&#x27;s not clear.
