Usually the summons will also contain the date the complaint was made to the District Court.

The Gardai may serve the summons on you by sending a copy of it by registered prepaid post. It may also be served by hand or left at your last known abode or place of work or with your spouse, child or other relative.

Depends on the charge. If, say you didn't produce your insurance with the 10 days given but got in contact with the prosecuting Garda, in say, 2 months, s/he mightn't go ahead with the prosecution.
