Man’s attempts to pay speeding fine ‘frustrated by bureaucracy
Judge James McNulty directed Garda authorities to instruct Inspector John McDonald to appear before Macroom District Court on July 16. The inspector heads up the Fixed Charge Processing Unit in Thurles which deals with offences detected by GoSafe vans.
The court heard yesterday that Timothy Doherty’s first attempt to pay an €80 fine for speeding on the N22 Cork-Killarney on November 16 last year was rejected as he did not include his middle name when signing a payment form, as it appeared on his licence.
