    I would contact them as Tinks has said hun and plead your case, if you've never missed a date before and can just put it down to an oversight they might be ok.... assuming it's been paid since just let them know it was paid as soon as you realised and your very sorry..... Hope it's all sorted hun

    yep, it was paid before DH drove the car again.

    i rang civic compliance but only get a computer, and it's hard to work out the info i need.

    do you know what it costs, or what the risks are to represent in court?

    i have found an application form for an internal review, maybe that's the one i want.

    oh spewing hun

    I really don't like your chances though. We had the same thing happen and i wrote to the appeals board and got a letter saying too bad so sad basically. Even though I don't have so much as a speeding fine against my name. I could have gone further and taken it to court but the court costs would have been added if I lost.

    You can apply to pay of the bare minimum you can afford at the local courts. $15-$20 a week which makes it more bareable..

    If you have a smart phone there is a app you can download to remind you in the future

    Good luck

    It doesn't cost you anything to appeal the matter in court. However, if you lose you might get the same fine plus court costs ($30-75ish dollars depending on state).

    You won't find much on the net. The back of the infringement will have all the info. They rely on a paper trail.
