Traffic tickets
« Thread Started on Jul 23, 2009, 9:15am »

Ok, so I was in Puerto Plata awhile ago and got stopped by AMET. Didn't have my licence with me (in my other purse) and the car I had borrowed didn't have an up to date revista. So I got dinged for both. My question is "where do I pay these"? Do I have to do it in Puerto Plata, or is there some place in Sosua/Cabarete that they can be paid?
Also, any idea of what the fine amount is?

Thanks!!!
YB

My friend got stopped and ticketed for not wearing his seat belt a while ago. The fine for this infraction was RD$1000. He paid it at Ban Reservas.

Does the "invoice" not say anything about that?

Ban Reservas is the place to pay the fines. Paid $1000RD for each offence.
And there was no info on the "invoice" as to where to pay it, at least I couldn't find it.
Anyway, all paid up!
Now I keep a copy of my license in EVERY purse and won't borrow a car again until I see ALL stickers in place.
Ahhh, live and learn.
Good thing I don't get all bent outta shape about things!

Have a great weekend everyone.

That's the way to do it.
I always have laminated colour copies of my 'residencia, cedula, licencia de conducir' on me.
Not of the shotgun permit though... very rarely I take that along with me..... 8-)
