Alleged traffic offence tickets issued in Italy

Thanks for that. Received a speeding fine in Italian which I paid.  Won't make that mistake again!

Most interesting, Brian. Thanks for the info. 

Thanks for that, will keep it handy just in case.  Got the feeling we could be hearing from the authorities in Salerno and Rome... nothing as yet though...

It goes for any legal document (including court summons)that if you are resident in another country it has to be sent to you in your language. Can be a good delaying tactic
