Payment of the cautioning fine
05/17/2012

The cautioning fine should be paid to the bank within thirty days from receipt of the fine notice. The cautioning fine is considered as duly paid if it is received on the bank account indicated in the fine notice by the due date for payment. If the person responsible for the vehicle has not contested the fine notice, but has not paid the cautioning fine by the due date, the body conducting extra-judicial proceedings will submit the fine notice to a bailiff for compulsory execution. No other person may be punished for the same act under the misdemeanour procedure after the person responsible for the vehicle has paid the cautioning fine or after the fine has become subject to enforcement.
