Am I Going To Jail For This??

Card image cap

Location: Central Texas.
In September I got a speeding ticket (22 over on the interstate, central Texas). I appeared in court like 2 weeks later and decided to do defensive driving as this was the 1st time I’d been pulled over in like 5 years. They accepted it and said I had 90 days to complete the course, and that next time I came in with the certification to also bring a copy of my insurance & driving record. I’m like cool sounds good. They give me a paper with other instructions that my DUMBASS didn’t bother reading until today. The paper said that I had to bring a copy of my insurance & driving record within 10 days (was given this paper October 13th), failure to do so & I could no longer do defensive driving. Then at the very bottom of the paper it says failure to do any of these & a “final conviction will be given with a warrant for my arrest”. I just want to know if I got the courthouse Monday will they arrest me there or what even is a realistic outcome there? My record clean, only ever been pulled over for speeding, I just like watching/playing sports, staying out the way. So am I cooked??
