FAQs
The Road Code reduces the fine when it is paid promptly. If you think the fine is wrong, send it to us before you pay, so that you can decide in time. We explain when an appeal is worthwhile in the publication Traffic fines: when it is worth challenging them.
When the violation constitutes a criminal offence, for example drunk driving in the cases provided for by the Criminal Code, the matter is handled under Criminal law.
By appealing to the body that reviews appeals, at the Traffic Police or the municipality depending on the case, and then with a lawsuit in court, where you can also ask for enforcement to be suspended. The deadline runs from the notification and is short, so send us the fine straight away, with any photos or evidence you have.
