Flashed by a camera in Lithuania. Think the speed limit was 90km, cruise was set to 130km GPS. (so easy to drive quick out here as the roads are empty). Is there any likelihood this will get sent back to me? Bit peeved as I have done 2000 miles in the past 6 days. Camera's are like ninjas out here!

I am kinda guessing here, but I predict that will be like red rag to the proverbial PH bull hehe

Maybe but can EU countries send fines back to your address if it is your own car you are driving?

They can send them anywhere they like, whether you want to pay it is a whole different question

My understanding is that this would only happen if you were in an EU country with reciprocal arrangements, such as Eire. Not sure if Lithuania has, but if you didn't cough up & then visited again in the future, Lithuanian plod would not be happy. Even then, they would have to keep this on record & clock you on ANPR....

Give their embassy a ring and tell them to do one.

You'll likely get a letter - had a parking ticket in Croatia and it ended up going to the previous owner (I bought th car a week before and it obviously hadn't gone through the DVLA/the plate on the car got transferred back)

Told the previous owner to ignore and nothing more came of it smile

You won't hear anything about it as DVLA won't share your info.

The EU reciprocal agreement is supposed to apply to UK by May 2017, but "Brexit means Brexit" so unlikely it will be implemented.

That is at least one positive thing to come out of leaving the E.U.
