Last year at the end of october we had a weeks holiday in Sardinia and we hired a car. In this mornings post we received a signed for letter saying it was for a parking infringement in a town called Oristano. I do remember the ticket being under the windscreen wiper blade when we returned and the details do appear to be correct for the hire car we had. Anyone had a similar experience? Do I pay it ? If I don't what can happen?
Answer 1 :
Judgeing by the amount of foreigners here who cry "I don't understand when they bump your car and drive of "
I say good on yer, why not send them a sympathy card and get it franked by our tourist board.lol
Answer 2 :
Last year an EU accord was agreed between member states allowing them to pursue motoring fines and offences in the home country of any EU citizen. If you do not pay it is possible for a summons to be issued by an British court and you could be made to pay a much higher fine plus all associated expenses. Those expenses could be very high, better to pay up and smile than worry unnecessarily!
