Can I pay a speeding or other traffic ticket at the police department?

No. All speeding and traffic citations in Maryland are paid to the State of Maryland at the District Court of Maryland. Recipients of a ticket must follow the directions from the court and are cautioned to pay close attention to deadlines for paying the fine or requesting a court date. If you do not pay the ticket to the court or request a court date within 30 days, your driver’s license may be suspended.
