Admin costs added to traffic fines

Thursday 25 June 2009

The government's fine collection agency is adding €6 in administration costs to every traffic fine it processes from now on, news agency ANP reports.

The admin fee will generate an extra €65m on an annual basis, ANP said. Last year, the agency processed 11.6 million fines.

Even fines of just a few euros will be subject to the admin fee.

Looks like drive a car will become a crime soon...

It seems to me the government's fine collection agency is the real criminal(s) here. It's not really about the need for administrative costs. It's all about the money.
