Appeal against a penalty charge notice

Every day, the traffic police fines thousands of people for various violations and they needs to appeal against a penalty charge notice.

One of the most common, and with the highest fines, is speeding.

In the event that the traffic police detects you for speeding, you will be drawn up with an act for establishing an administrative violation.

As can be assumed from its name, the act establishes an administrative violation.

In short, the act describes information about the offender and the violation and fills in data that is mandatory by law.

Claim against traffic charge notice ?

It should be borne in mind that a large part of the fines are subsequently annulled by the court, due to violations on the part of the deed drafter already at the stage of drawing up and completing the deed.

Very often, it is precisely here that mandatory and strictly regulated procedures by law are not observed, which is why the act, and subsequently the criminal decree, are annulled.

After the act is drawn up and delivered to the offender, the latter has a 3-day period to object to it.

It is important to know that even if this 3-day period is missed, it is not a big problem. 

According to the legal practice the objection is considered by the authority above the drafter of the act and very rarely it decides that the act is illegal and unfounded.

After the expiry of the 3-day period, the punishing authority has a 6-month period in which to issue a penal decree.
