General Information

This service is for payment of traffic infraction fines and fees. The Judicial Branch Violations Bureau handles traffic infraction tickets for the entire State of Maine through a centralized process. Traffic infractions are non-criminal offenses.  Criminal traffic cases, such as OUI or speeding more than 30 mph over the limit, are processed by the district court covering the location where the alleged offense occurred. 

If you received a hand-written ticket, there may be a delay from the time you receive your ticket until you can use this online payment site. 

You may also pay your ticket by mail, over the phone, or in person at the clerk’s window at any Maine state courthouse. 

Failure to pay your traffic ticket fine

If you do not pay the full amount of your traffic ticket fine within the time allowed, your license will be suspended. 

If suspended, you will need to pay an additional $50 late fee for each violation, plus a reinstatement fee to the Bureau of Motor Vehicles to have your license reinstated.

You have 30 days from the date the decision is entered in your case to pay your fine, unless otherwise ordered by a judge.

Contest a Ticket

To contest (dispute) a traffic ticket, follow the directions on your paper ticket or use our online service, Guide & File. To contest or take other actions regarding a traffic ticket through Guide & File, you must set up an account and have an email address.
