They probably want to figure out first, who the real driver was. If its you or somebody else.

I may be wrong but AFAIK you can just bin it, there's no way of chasing you for it. 2011 (MY12) 4.4 TDV8 Vogue

Oh and it was 161 in a 120 zone - no infomation of fine amount in letter but the internet seems to suggest around 160€ and a 1 month ban from driving in Germany but we will wait and see what the next letter brings. 2008 TDV8 |

pretty much spot on for the fine to be expected.

There isn't in the UK because no reciprocal arrangement exists, but that may not be the case between Poland & Germany...... they got the address from somewhere. Does the fine go up if you don't pay it ? Did you need to sign for the letter ? (Do they have proof you received it) ? Another alternative is to always ensure you have enough cash in the car to pay a roadside fine. When travelling through France, I always make sure I have 90 EUR just in case I accidentally exceed the speed limit |

Pretend you are a Frank (XXXAngelXX). They must have him on their records so much by now they might let you/him off it (sort of BOGOF - buy one get one free!) |
