Go to court

You can apply to challenge your fine in court.

Going to court is usually more time consuming and costly than using our review process. This is why we strongly recommend that you first consider requesting a review, if possible.

• If you do ask us to review and you disagree with our decision, you have 28 days to take the matter to court.
• If you choose to go to court, do not ask us to review your fine at the same time. Under the law, we must stop any review the moment you take the option to go to court.

Nominate someone else

If you were not driving the vehicle at the time of the offence, do not apply to go to court.

• Instead, follow the process for naming the driver of the vehicle.

Challenging an overdue fine in court

Before you can challenge an overdue fine in court, you need to prove you could not deal with the penalty or reminder notice by the due date.
