I drive a car with non-EU plates. A year ago I was driving a bit too fast and a fotoradar flashed at my car. I am fully willing to pay the fine, but I never received any bill for a fine, which is not surprising because as far as I understand Poland has no access to information about non-EU cars. Therefore I don't know how much I owe or how to make payment. I forgot all about it and figured I don't need to worry.
But recently I heard a rumour that the Straż Graniczna may in the near future gain access to databases about non-EU cars and deny entry/exit to their owners until fines are paid. I wouldn't want to miss a flight because of some old fine I was never even notified of. What should I do?
I also heard that in certain situations an unpaid fine can be grounds for imprisonment. Surely that doesn't apply to people who never even got a notification in the mail that they need to pay a fine right?
