Hi,
just wondering if anyone can help me, i have bad anxiety which i am on medication for and so cannot stop worrying about this.
i’m 18 and recently got caught with a child ticket, (first time) i have never been in trouble with the police before or anything like that and am going to uni in september to study nursing. the officer took me aside and interviewed me, took my details and ID, he said i was not going to be arrested or prosecuted but to expect a fine in the post within 8-10weeks and that his advise is to pay it to sort it asap. was travelling on east midland train.
i know it was an ignorant and stupid thing to do and i do regret it. i was trying to save some extra cash as my mum is a single parent and i have to help her pay bills and things for my siblings and have had to provide for myself since i was first able to get a job ( again i know there is no excuse ).
i’m scared i’ll have to go to court and will end up with a criminal record which will jeopardise my future career path all because of a stupid thing i did, or worse go to prison.
does anyone know what will happen? thanks.
