AARTO only applies in Johannesburg and Pretoria... Rest of the country is still covered by the Criminal Procedures Act. Can't speak for PE, but here in Jhb, unless they have proof of service, it's not worth the paper it's printed on.Originally Posted by iAmThePope
Yes, but it's not a fine. It's a summons to appear in court to answer for charges of an [criminal] offence.

ignore fine. It cant be a summons as those must be hand delivered as far as I know.
That's the Eastern Cape for ya.So it takes over a year to get you to go to court for a speeding fine?
wow

wowWhat's even more hilarious is that the PE traffic cops are not even averaging one fine a day per patrolling officer
since when is number of fines issued an indication of performance? In fact since when is number of fines issued an indication of safer roads?What's even more hilarious is that the PE traffic cops are not even averaging one fine a day per patrolling officer
Ouch, the PE courts suck. I know, I have to go there to get my fines reduced. Anyway, write a letter to the Public Prosecutor, don't bother with email, she doesn't even have a PC on her desk and she has like a Nokia 3310. lol. Well if you going to travel here to appear in court, the judge is a nice man, he would most prob through it out. One time I was sitting there and this girl came in with a R200 fine that she got near CT, she could only pay it at that place where she got the fine. Why aren't our traffic systems connected just out of interest sake?
Sometimes I talk to myself if I feel like having an intelligent conversation.
Because that would be way too convenient for us

Is that a bad thing? I'm not sure of the morals of our traffic system but I imagine they would make more money if their systems where connected...Isn't that what our traffic cops think is the point?

Ah but if you live in JHB and have a fine in PE you have to drive all the way to PE, thus the government(not police) get extra cash from fuel. Also it increases the chances that you will get another fine on your way there.
I had a fine in DBN once, I live in JHB, it was delivered and it picked up on that paycity website and all. I left it and 9 months later it was gone.
