Do you get a warrant? The ticket is issued by a private firm, it cannot issue warrants, just try to collect like any other bill.

If it wasn't sent by registered mail, I'd ignore it. The only proof that they have that you received the ticket is this post
if you ask me, but I don't have much exp with these types of tickets. I have a friend in AZ who tells me he just refuses to acknowledge the tickets, or the people that come to serve the tickets later, and eventually they go away.
At the very least, I'd wait to be served by a court or law official. I think the fine print on that ticket you have states that you need to a sign a waiver that you don't need to be served and admit guilt. Don't make it easy even if you do pay imo.

These tickets are BS.. they've been beaten in court numerous times, and easily so especially if the camera didn't catch your face

Ya, that was insane. Another photo redlight scam I thought was hilarious happened somewhere in Ohio. A local judge ruled that every single cent had to be turned over to schools, and needless to say the cameras were then decomissioned.

A real ticket will have the address/phone number of the court and a specific date when you must appear. A fake ticket will not have a court address and will say something ambiguous like "must be paid within 20 days" - no specific court date is given, and sometimes in fine print it will say "Do not contact the court".
The real ticket will go to warrant if not paid, the fake ticket can be ignored.
This is what I know about CA tickets - I don't know about FL.

Now in addition to red-light cameras here in Saint Louis we now have cameras with radar built in that will snap your picture if you are speeding. FTMFL!!!!
