Delay in speed camera fines

Motorists caught violating the highway code by newly introduced speed cameras have yet to receive their fine after almost one month since the network went live.

According to Phileleftheros daily, police officials confirmed that not a single registered letter with a traffic offense has been sent out.

It quoted traffic police deputy chief Charis Evripidou who clarified the operation had been stalled due to procedural issues that were expected to be resolved “in a matter of days.”

Operators are having difficulty in confirming mailing addresses due to bad record keeping or time needed to calculate penalty points when more than one violation is being recorded.
