I got a ticket for speeding at autobahn on my ED

64-bit · 09-12-2013, 07:25 PM

Yep! As the title says, I was at 125 at autobahn and the limit was 110kph, sucks and at same time is cool, I got the ticket delivered at my house "great souvenir to hang in my man cave wall".
The problem is, is in German and I have no clue how to pay those $50 euros, I could not find a website there as well. I'm abaut to scan the paper and use google translator.

Any help will be very much appreciated.

Anyway, check this out... Found by doing a google search

For a sec I read this as you were doing 125 mph in a 110 kph zone and thought WTF!

This is about the equivalent to doing 8-9 mph over the limit here in the states, right? I never see people getting tickets for going that little over the limit.

I will fix it, that is right, Kph, I believe I got the ticket when driving thru a tunnel as my car was doing its limit right before I get in to the tunnel at 130 Mph, :-), that is why I will not complaining about the $50 euros as it could a lot worst.

I don't know the laws in Germany, but in the states if you get a ticket by mail you can just ignore it. The ticket in the mail is a waiver for your rights to be handed the citation by an officer of the court. If you don't sign and turn it in, they have to have a court appointed individual track you down and certify you received it.
