Nashville Needs Your Help (Financially)
The good news is, you can ditch the trip to the courthouse and those awkward encounters with disappointed judges (they never liked my rendition of "Achy Breaky Heart" either). Nashville, in all its technological wisdom, offers a way to settle your traffic ticket from the comfort of your couch, in your PJs (because who wants to get dressed for this chore?).
Buckle Up, Buttercup, It's Time to Pay Up (Online)
Here's the gist:
Find Your Citation BFF: First things first, you gotta find your trusty citation buddy. You know, that little piece of paper that details your traffic faux pas (hopefully it wasn't something too scandalous like forgetting to two-step at a crosswalk). Write down the citation number – that's your golden ticket (pun intended) to online payment paradise.
Saddle Up and Go Online: Mosey on over to the Davidson County Clerk's website ([Davidson County Traffic Payment]).
Clickety-Clack, Pay That Ticket Back: Look for the glorious button that says "Pay Ticket Online" (because sometimes the most obvious things are the easiest to miss).
Fill 'Er Up (With Information): Here's where your citation buddy comes in handy again. You'll need to fill out some info, like your citation number, driver's license number, and maybe even your social security number (don't worry, it's all secure).
The Grand Finale (with a Fee, But Hey, It's Nashville): You can choose to pay with a credit card, debit card, or even an e-check. Just remember, there's a little convenience fee attached, because Nashville ain't exactly giving things away for free (except maybe the occasional bachelorette party shenanigans).
Important Note: Make sure you check the box that says "I understand that by making this payment, I am pleading guilty to the offense charged." Don't accidentally admit to anything you didn't do while you were busy singing along to Garth Brooks.
