If you do not pay your ticket or show up on your court date, the court issues a bench warrant. Bench warrants must be paid in person at the court clerk office.

Once you clear the warrant, the court processes a release if your license was suspended. You then need to take that release to DPS to get your license restored.
Under Oklahoma law, traffic violations get reported to the Department of Public Safety within five days of the final disposition. That means the conviction goes on your driving record. If you want to fight the ticket, you need to appear in court and enter a not guilty plea before paying anything. Once you pay, the case is closed and the conviction stands.
