Anyone who at least once in their life has gotten a fine driving their own car or that of other people who are friends or family members doesn’t change much.
It’s certainly not a good feeling, but once the mistake is made there is little to do, you have to pay. Among other things, we all know that there are limits established by law within which you have to pay if you don’t want to have serious consequences.
All motorists have a nightmare: getting a fine, of any amount. Yet FrThis can happen for various reasons especially if you’re in a hurry and don’t pay attention to the details.
For example, you can get a speeding ticket if you don’t notice the roadblock or speed camera. If you leave your car parked where it shouldn’t be, if you don’t respect the right of way at intersections, if you overtake where you can’t.
