GOOOOOO BILBO!

Standing up for the common man...with none more common than your good self.

Anyhow...if you have never physically received a ticket then it must be impossible for them to expect you to make a payment without it. I'd just tell em to fuck off until the warden actually brings the ticket round to your house and gives it to you in person. Obviously, you lay on the sick man routine pretty thick, and hopefully she'll be begging you to let her not give you the ticket after all.
