German Speeding!

[unfazed]

Good work slap  ....I would be very interested in their reply.....if you get one , which, somehow I dont think you will   

It is Germany your dealing with, of course they will reply, since you have now just proved you exist 

FFS!
are you hard of thinking!
The German authorities do NOT want to endorse your license but they do want to ban you from using THEIR roads for a period of time.
Until your license appears on their system and has done the required ban you will be a criminal in Germany if you drive there.
You've already paid the fine so just dot the i's and cross the T's,  or do you just enjoy making a drama out of something straightforward.
FYI, fairly soon Europe WILL insist on cross border cooperation for motoring offences and any outstanding warrants will be transferred to the relevant authority who will have the power to ban you here. They are already trialling it in austria/germany/Holland.

I would listen to sadlonelygit, he would be a bit more clued up than most being a multi country coach driver.

Even if someone is in Germany for just a [/size]short time[/color][/size] – as a tourist for example – and is punished with a driving ban, the traffic offender cannot unmake it by leaving Germany without complying with the penalty, because the offender can be charged with [/color][/size]driving without a licence[/color][/size] upon re-entry into Germany, if the person is driving a car. This is a [/color][/size]criminal offence[/color][/size] by German law which is punished with a [/color][/size]fine or even a prison sentence[/color][/size] of up to one year.[/color][/i]

[/size]I read that as meaing that you have to serve the ban in Germany [/color]

Right-oh, been a while since I posted last.
Thank you for your comments sadlonelygit, I'm sure your just a misunderstood soul that has a brick like compassion. DHW
Finlay the German authorities wrote to me in English after I requested them to do so. In the letter they kindly asked for my licence to be posted to them so they CAN ENDORSE IT....! Several letters later they were just happy to receive a PHOTOCOPY of my licence & have issued the ban on their system for 1 month with the warning that if I'm caught driving on their roads while the ban is in place I'm in for the high jump.
The DVLA has stated that it has no future plans to share UK information with any foreign government, we shall wait & see.

Hope this information helps anyone out.

i think DVLA might be lying to you, we have until next year!
