Did you receive a letter from the DGT (Spanish Traffic Authority)? The information in the letter is organized in numbered areas, as you can see in the picture.
- Date of the offence, time and record number: you will need both the date and the record number to pay for the fine (the record number, 'número expediente' in Spanish, has 12 digits).
- Legal stuff: article and law you broke.
- Where: precise location where the offence took place.
- Why: a brief explanation of the offence (in speeding fines it includes both the car speed and the limit speed for the road).
- Vehicle data: if the car was rented, you can check your contract and confirm that the car rental company didn't make a mistake.
- Your name and address: if you have received the letter these data are likely to be correct.
You don't really need to read / translate all the text below, all the information you need is there.
Pro tip: you can reply to the letter and request that they send you a copy in English or in your mother tongue (the address is below the Spanish coat of arms).
