Contact the courthouse and tell them, they will generally ask for your license and can retrieve it via their databases.

If you don't remember which county you got your ticket in, call your local DMV and see if you have any current tickets. They will typically ask for your license number and date of birth. The DMV can give you the name and number of the county courthouses you need to contact. They can also give you the issue date and current status of your tickets and let you know if you have any warrants. Be careful not to refer to them as "outstanding tickets"; they may think you are referring to something past-due.

(In my situation, I called my local DMV but couldn't get very far so I called the DMV at my state's capital. I got a lot of help from there.)

Also, if you think your ticket may be past due your state may have a "Failure to Appear" system that allows you to check on the status of old tickets.

(In the state of Texas, for example, there is a "Failure to Appear" verification system at 800-686-0570 and a very user friendly website at http://www.texasfailuretoappear.com/search.php.)

Check the back of the ticket they sometimes have a grid or rate schedule. If not then you call the department where it was issued from and ask the cost. The number and date of the ticket are registered by the officer as soon as his shift ends and you will be held accountable. Fines are usually assessed on the date of the court hearing. If you are not required to attend a hearing contact the clerk of the traffic court in the county where the ticket was issued.
