Traffic fines

Most visitors who encounter Romanian Traffic Police officers believe that they are nice and friendly. In case that you will have to deal with Traffic Police please remember the following:
Traffic officers cannot collect fines on the spot. All fine payments must be made at a bank or local tax administration office. The officer will only write the ticket and will give instructions on how to pay/ dispute the fine.
Traffic laws indicate a minimum and a maximum fine for each traffic violation. The police officer has the authority to decide the fine amount, based on circumstances.
Fines are not differentiated based on income or citizenship.
Officers and judges have leeway in determining/ canceling traffic fines.
