No, because the next time you try to register your car or renew your driver's license, you will be liable for not only the amount of the ticket, but also any late fees. If you fail to pay it, you may also face a suspended license without notification. Then if you're stopped again, you could be subject to arrest on the spot. The most responsible thing to do is to pay the fine. You did the offense, so payment makes sense.

No, because you are responsible for changing your address on your license within (I think) 30 days of moving. It is actually an additional citation if you didn't. My advice would be to not mention that you've moved, and go change your address quickly.

You are more likely to get an additional citation for failing to report your change of address. If you had told him the one on your drivers license was incorrect you would probably have gotten that additional citation at the time. Pay the fine and go submit your address change.

Not a chance. if you did offer the officer your new address, he may just issue you another citation for giving false information. Anything that is incorrect on a traffic citation, can be corrected in traffic court. its done every day.
