Everything impacts your credit.

Just not using a credit card for a few days may cause a drop of 20-40 points. Buying something unusual could affect it. Opening another account could wreak havoc on it.

Credit Scores are mostly volatile and ridiculously arbitrary. You are being scammed by thinking it matters that much. Don't buy into the scam.

TLDR? Yes, it will affect your score if you don't pay the FLOCK camera scammers. But you shouldn't care, it won't affect it enough to matter.

When you are next stopped for sny reason in the place you have the ticket they will arrest you.

It won’t affect your credit because it’s on the car not the driver. There are no points given either for the same reason.

Is this true if the car is registered in Va? I thought Va didn’t have reciprocity with DC on camera tickets.

Electronic records are forever. Don’t be a fool.

So you ran a red light and want to weasel out of the fine?

You should be thinking about your clearance.

They will find you. Why would you leave it unpaid?

The question was what happens if you don’t pay the bill not if you receive the bill

Same. We got a camera ticket in a rental car in CA and it didn't take them long to track us down. (We had no idea we had gotten a ticket until it showed up in the mail.)

Did he owe a lot of tickets? Was he parked legally?

Maybe stop running red lights. Next time you could kill someone, not just get a ticket.

It can affect your license and it won’t go away, it will just get more expensive.

Larlo, pay the damn ticket!
