Has anybody ever had their fare infraction ticket sent to collections?

I got a ticket today for "failure to produce payment". I have no doubt i tapped my credit card but idk if the reader didnt register or if I tapped too fast. Anyway it was an honest mistake and I was still going to tap my credit card out anyway so I would have still made the payment that I missed on the tap in. I don't think it's fair for me to get a ticket becuase of their useless readers so I don't want to pay it. Have you ever heard of anybody getting any type of reprecussions from not paying the fare infraction ticket?
