Good job there wasn't a breathalyser involved

It was a late flight.
Same thing applies, the licence plate is in the picture but it doesn't show the car, yes I was driving.
I'm just wondering if
(a) others have got away with it or
(b) others have tried and been fined (I know about bank accounts and property being embargoed but that doesn't apply to me)
(c) any technicalities that I can use to appeal, eg in UK there are websites to help appeal council and speeding tickets based on technicalities on the letters like incorrect dates, incorrect workding etc.

You obviously don't want to hear what is being said not just on here but elsewhere so just do what you want and accept whatever the outcome is, I am afraid that is the only advice I can offer someone with your view on this matter.

Everyone has spoken with hypotheticals so far haven't they?

The only hypothetical is that by hook or by crook you will not end up paying the money possibly more than you think. But that is your choice!

No, everyone is saying the same thing, pay up or shut up.. If you decide not to pay, then don't come back to Spain, or you may find problems..
