    Or provide collateral. And chuck them on a wanted list for the EU. If they ever return, they get detained and have to pay and sent home.

    I’m pretty sure dutch tourists will just get the fined forwarded to them through the CJIB (the Dutch fine collection authority). So fleeing the country does not help.

      Looking it up, the fine is UP TO €300 in Barcelona. They could say “pay now, get 50% off, pay later and pay the full 300”

        Or vice versa… now is 300 of we have to collect in the uk via a collection agency it will be 450.

        I’ll bet plenty of collection agencies will collect that for 100 euro

        And we talking people skipping out on paying fines they deserve.

        If it where up to me I’d allow the Guardian civil beat anyone in an inflated penis suit, untill the whole thing was flaccid and they could pour the occupant out through one of the airholes… but that’s just me.
