Traffic fine on car
Traffic fine on car
by Suzana Randall » Tue Apr 05, 2016 4:19 pm
Hello good people of Quesada,
I'm not sure if this has happened to any of the people in this forum so if this has been discussed, please accept my apology. We moved here permanently at the end of July last year and we bought a brand new car from a Ford garage in Elche. As we weren't sure how we renew the car tax, we went into the Suma office in Rojales this morning to get this renewed. We then were informed that there is an outstanding fine on this car for a traffic incident which happened in November last year and it was for €88. My question and worry is why haven't we received this fine notification in the post after it happened and how can we obtain any evidence that this was actually our vehicle? Do the traffico just impose a fine and we just have to pay them without any question? And what actually happen is we didn't go into the Suma office and being ignorant of this outstanding fine? It's very worrying. Can somebody help to enlighten this matter?:text-thankyouyellow:

You need to find out what it was for and you should have been notified of what the fine was for. We were accused of being in Northern Spain and parking illegally and a copy of the parking ticket was sent to us but after sending proof we weren't there the fine was dropped. When the car went through a speed camera we were sent a picture of our car and number plate.

We had a similar thing happen to us. We had an amount of 120€ taken from our bank account and paid to the Spanish tax authority. It turned out that we had a speeding fine from a fixed camera 18 months previously. As trafico could not collect the fine, because we never received it through the post, they passed it onto hacienda who promptly added 20€. After we filed our first tax return, and hacieda then had our bank details, the fine was then taken from our bank account.
I discovered all of this only after getting a digital signature and then being able to access my private documents on both Hacienda and trafico websites.
Where we were living at the time only had a buzon some distance from the house and so correspondence was a bit sketchy. We had a correspondence address to get around this but obviously trafico sent the fine to the house address that was on our car documents.
I can only recommend getting yourself a digital signature, which is very easy to do, and accessing the details of the fine in question. The details of our fine corresponded to the time and date of us travelling past the fixed camera.

Thank you for this information but unlike you, we don't have the problem with our post box so we are not sure why we have not received the fine. How can we obtain this digital signature?

• You will get a warning message asking if it is OK to issue a security certifícate – click OK
• You will then get another warning message saying ‘creating a new RSA Exchange Key’ – click OK
