Frenchman Wrongly Issued Speeding Ticket for Unowned Car
French motorist Mr. S. has found himself in a predicament after receiving a speeding ticket for a vehicle he does not own. The Peugeot with a French license plate was caught speeding, but Mr. S. suspects his identity was used fraudulently. He has turned to 'Justice Without Borders', an independent NGO, for assistance.
Since 2023, 'Justice Without Borders' has provided free support and initial consultations to over 1,900 inquiries, including Mr. S.'s case. The organization, funded by several European bodies, offers bilingual legal experts to help those in need. Mr. S. can object to the speeding ticket online, a service available to all in France. However, he must first file a police report and block his online ID function via the hotline 116 116.
The NGO advises caution when sharing digital copies of IDs. Mr. S. should have protected his ID card with a watermark to prevent such fraud. His case highlights the importance of 'Justice Without Borders' in protecting citizens' rights across borders.
Mr. S. should not pay the unjustified fine but should object to it through the online portal. 'Justice Without Borders' stands ready to assist with over 700 initial legal consultations already organized this year. The organization's independence and European funding ensure it can provide unbiased, expert support to those in need.
