Bad idea. You don't think that an unpaid ticket doesn't end up on your record? Depending on the locality they may refuse to renew your license, find you in contempt of court and issue a warrant, etc.
A buddy of mine was arrested after he was stopped for a minor traffic violation because there were several unpaid PARKING tickets associated with the car. Parking tickets his wife received and didn't pay.
