I have just received what looks like a speeding fine letter delivered to my UK address from Spain.

It was from when we were out in February in a hire car

Has anyone else ever had the same??

I am hoping not to pay a cent of it but don't fancy a spell in Alhama Jail at some point in the future.....

Cheers,

Peter

Pay the fine! 

You committed the crime!

At least you wont get your UK license endorsed!

Have you translated it yet? It might be worth talking to the company you hired it from as they must have passed your details on in order for you to receive this letter/speeding ticket.

If you don't pay it, you might find your details flagged up when you try to book a car for when you come out next.

I know they're very hot in the States on this, not sure how it works in Spain though.

Such arrogance, I as an expat living here have had more than my share of speeding fines, entirely my own fault..I take the risk but if I get caught I pay the fine...why should you not do the same. If you don't I for one would like to see you spend a spell in the Alhama jailhouse as you jokingingly put it.

Many thanks for the advice / reprimands

All most welcome!

Cheers,

Peter

ps I hear the continental breakfast in Alhama Jail is most agreeable although I will probably drive at a steady 60 kph to god knows where & pay the fine

Hi Peter 

Glad you have seen sence. Speed limits are there for a reason. My husband see`s the results of those foolish enough to speed only too often. Unfortunatley its the driver that gets off scratch free. The poor passengers & others are not so lucky.

Some never get to speak of it

I'd check it with hire company. Could be a scam as most companies would just bill you from the credit card details you left.
