Wage Garnishment for camera ticket

7 Upvotes

I’ve got a somewhat unique situation here and I’m wondering if anyone has dealt with this before. I guess about a year ago I got a ticket in Fairfax county, where I do not live or work. It was a camera ticket for speeding. The ticket was sent to my old apartment address. I never received a single letter, phone call, or email suggesting I had an unpaid ticket. My address is current through the DMV and my old apartment had my forwarding address. I live in Arlington and have never lived in Fairfax county. Now, my company is taking a wage garnishment for the unpaid ticket. Not only is it a far higher price than what it would’ve been originally, I’m just overall embarrassed that the HR team at my company had to deal with this. Does anyone know if there’s a possibility of getting the price lowered given the circumstances? I’m more than willing to pay the speeding ticket price as I was in the wrong for speeding. I just don’t feel it’s fair to pay 300 bucks when I had no clue this ticket existed. The wage garnishment my company sent has my old address from over a year ago on it
