Got a parking fine, girlfriend put it in the washing machine!!AHHH

Hi!!
I was wondering if any one knows what I should do here?
The parking fine is in about 100 pieces!

Can I just go to my local garda station or do I have to contact some department?

I have yet to find anything about this on the net!

Any advice is greatly appreciated..

Tape it back together, or glue it carefully onto a sheet of paper. So long as the date/number is visible its okay to use.

dump your girlfriend tbh, that would teach her lesson for not checking your pockets before she done your washing

Ring the county council office, I think they do the traffic wardens.

You dont pay more after a reminder...

WindSock · 31-12-2007 3:30pm

That was nice of them to tell you your parking was fine.

Quality · 31-12-2007 3:35pm

I lost a fine before, I never did anything about it, I was called to court and the garda was out sick so it got thrown out of court.

It was great, I got out of paying for it and no penalty points either...

ye but he should make her pay the fine first, then dump her obviously. I think washing machines are so high tech for some women nowadays that they forget the basics of checking a man's pockets
