speeding fine
Just got a speeding fine that the rental car company passed on:
113 km in an 80 zone 300 euros or 150 if I pay within 20 days. I think this is the camera just on the exit of a tunnel from Malaga to Motril. They dont provide a site to pay it on and the camera picture is pretty poor. It just shows the licence plate, everything else is dark. They don't even have passport info. on the letter so do I have any options for appeal? |
Re: speeding fine
It depends whether you were speeding or not. You obviously were renting the car for the car hire company to pass the fine onto you. The camera obviously caught you. What would you appeal about? I'd just pay the fine or the next time you come to Spain you might find you can't hire a car!!

Re: speeding fine
Surely it must have time and date on? if you were driving can't see what there is to appeal against? If someone else was driving tell them. The camera surely doesn't have to show you driving you either were or were not. Could just get more expensive and awkward for you to dispute i.e. if someone else driving were they covered by insurance?

You can appeal base don the fact that the picture isn't clear I think. But all that aside, how am I supposed to pay it anyway if there's no info on the form? |

You are 'cleverly' only saying it shows the plate. Are you saying the number is showing clearly or not? You also say 'the' rental car company and not 'a' suggesting you know the company and did hire it from them. Stop wriggling. Either you're caught 'bang to rights' or it's a potential miscarriage of justice. The 'information' in your OP is mysteriously devoid of any facts that might answer these questions. I wonder why? Finally, why not telephone the rental company and ask them how to pay it? Or is that too easy? |
Re: speeding fine
There are signs telling you there is a radar or camera and it is on the gantry. you are not the first and am sure wont be the last to be caught.:)

perhaps the smoke from his joint was responsible for the short term memory loss and the hazy picture
