I know what you mean. Just happened to be having my hair done a few months ago when another customer, a woman in her late 80s and very well known to my hairdresser, came in for her appointment.
She told of a traffic ticket she had gotten in a town that is about an hour away. As she was lamenting about having to drive there to pay her bill, the hairdresser and I told her that there must be a way to pay by mail. I wound up looking over the citation for her to learn the address for her to send a check. My search was not as fast as I had anticipated, and, as the address was in a tiny, tiny font, I wrote it out for her on a piece of paper. Should not have been so difficult.
One could come up with reasons why they want to make it difficult for people to pay their fines, but it’s probably just incompetence.
