Or you can be sitting at a red light in PA one day and get rear-ended by some drunk. Courts are generally receptive and willing to work with those who come forward and own up to their responsibilities. I think your best course of action would be to call the court and explain you live out of state and would like to make arrangements to take care of an outstanding warrant. You can go turn yourself in, or you can take your chances on not being arrested. In my state (AL) our misdemeanor warrants are published as “county-wide extradition only” or sometimes “surrounding counties only.” That is to say, we won’t spend manpower to cross county lines, let alone state lines, to extradite someone who didn’t pay a traffic ticket.However, it’s important to understand that warrants never go away. You’re probably OK, as long as you - for the rest of your life - never give a police officer in the state of Pennsylvania cause to run your information through NCIC.
