Now, about 1 1/2 weeks ago I got a letter from the Parking Clerk from Northampton with just the three sheets web page printout of the Massachusetts General Laws. Today I received a letter from a collection agency in New York. I did not open this one but only held it up to the sun and read it. It said something like if I do not pay then my registration and DL may not be renewed... However I believe that the Parking Clerk just decided to hand off my case to a collection agency to get rid of me (the violation was put on my auto 34 days ago, seems kinds fast to sent it to collections). Question is, what do I do? The fine is now $20 (up from $10). How do I know for sure that it is a collection agency and is the "non-renewal" a bluff?

Thanks!
