参考一下这个:
Some places allow for the immediate arrest of a violator who is from out of
state, or country, the arrest allows them to post bond or pay the fine at
the station , and insures that the state gets their money...
I work in Wash. DC I ALWAYS ticket out of state and out of Country
residents, If they do not show up, warrant gets issued, and their "privilege
to drive" in the state gets suspended, stop them again, after they are
suspended, and they get arrested.....
When I explain this, to tourists I stop,,,,, they usually pay the fine.
If you get caught, the penalty is a lot more expensive than what it cost to
obey the law in the first place.
