Nadine my german knowledge is fairly rudimentary, but does your name say nadine the leg? or is that Bein? (also i cant imagine leg being die..)

Re: dutch speeding ticket - do I need to pay?
 

hmm .. well, it was on a work trip. I might see if work'd like to pay it for me. it's only 60EU

actually, now I think about it, I've got a load of guilders somewhere, maybe I should try sending them

Im here, hmm read this with intrest.

Its true you can get away with out having your licence endorsed as other countries can not put on points (at the moment) but like someone else has said if you dont pay the fine, the next time you are known to be in Holland they will more than likley bang you up untill you have.

If the fine is noy too much just pay it.

Nadine you are a very naughty girl not changing your plates to German ones or visa vers german ones to UK. See my rants in other posts ref the Poles up the road from me.

I hope that if you have still got your German plates on here in the UK that you get tugged and found out you have been residing here for more than 6 months, hence done for no tax and MOT etc, better still give me your plate details and ill report you. In case you had not notices i hate people comming to the UK and taking the p*ss.

Neio - Nadine said in previous posts that she has GB plates but a German licence and as she's under 70 she has no obligation to get a GB licence.

O dear, o dear, let us put things straight:

I am german (sorry) but I have been studying in the UK for 3 years now - my SV is hence British & I am only back in germany on holidays.

BUT: Swansea DID drop the charges when I went through a red light! ;-) (It will not happen again)

Everything clear?

All te best, Nadine

Go Neio :smt041

Re: dutch speeding ticket - do I need to pay?
 

all cleared up, ill put my soap box away now.

I know there are some countrys that the UK wil accept a straight swap of the original licence for a Uk one, i would imagine Germany is one?

Re: dutch speeding ticket - do I need to pay?
 

I think the issue here is not so much the Dutch authorities as the car hire company. When you hire you usually sign saying you are liable for tickets, fines etc. So they will recover the monies somehow I guess. Has your credit card expired ;)?

Dear Neio,
why should I pay senseless money to get a UK plastic card when I have a full EU license? Not even my BRITISH insurance is more expensive...
