hello there,
I got done speeding last June - going 109km in 100km zone just past Kill - N7. The speeding fine notice was sent to my rental accommodation and landlord sent it on to my work - As I work as as a teacher I didnt get to open it until 1st September. I have since gotten an email from him to confirm that I had moved out and he sent it on the post.
I have since received a summons last week for a court date in December. (the summons, which I signed for, aslo had the wrong eircode).
So my query is should I got to court and contend that I didnt get the fixed penalty notice and therefore had no option to pay the initial 80 euro fee and take my chances ....or drop into the local garda station up to 7 days before the court date and pay 160 euros plus the 3 penalty points.
Any feedback from those of you in the know would be sincerely appreciated.
Thanks
Neo
