returning to USA with an unpaid speeding ticket (Nevada)

[zed sump]

picked up a ticket courtesy of a Nevada trooper last september. has anyone had experience of returning to the USA (same state/ different state) with an unpaid ticket against their name?

probably best to get a $ check sent for the original amount and maybe find out the hard way how much extra they want for late payment if the states talk to each other, that is! nb wasn't thinking of returning to Nevada.

Got caught on one of the toll highways travelling between Orlando and Miami. Proper smokey and the bandit job, the patrol officer did a u-turn on the opposite highway bouncing across the grass in clouds of dust and everything… Humour I have no idea what you mean…

was on the way back from the Burning Man event, north of Reno. apparently it's the cops' biggest time of the year for nailing speeders and anyone else who gives them the slightest cause for a pullover...
my trooper popped over the hill in the travelling in the opposite direction and i just caught a glimpse of his brake lights going as i disappeared over the same hill... so down to the limit and there he came, lights a blazin' godamn.... spent ages takin' the details and told me after showing my UK license that it's normally mean a trip to the magistrates straight away... but i guess he needed to bump his wage so i bought a ticket for $140. asked him how he knew my speed? he had a car mounted speed gun scanning the road ahead, which deducted his vehicles speed from the closing speed of the cars.
next visit will most certainly be on the eastern seaboard so hopefully no airport problems
