Fines

Many city centers in Italy are defined "Restricted Traffic Zones". These areas are not accessible to vehicles on certain days or times as prescribed by the relevant traffic authority. Even when driving a rental car it is necessary to respect these restrictions to avoid incurring an administrative penalty.

Some of our stations are near central areas and "limited traffic areas" and it is therefore necessary to pay careful attention not to enter the ZTL. Our Florence Via Borgognissanti station, for example, is located near one of these areas. Customers are therefore informed of its presence and of the possibility of returning the vehicle avoiding entry into the ZTL.

If you are not sure whether or not the station is close to a ZTL or which route to take to return the vehicle, do not hesitate to ask.

When a traffic offence occurs, we are notified by the relevant authorities as the registered owner of the vehicle in order to identify the driver of the vehicle. Whenever possible, liability is transferred to the driver of the vehicle at the time of the offence and the authorities re-issue the Penalty/Parking Charge Notice to the driver. We charge an administration fee to cover our costs involved in this process. Following a liability transfer, the authorities contact the driver directly by post with the re-issued fine. Rest assured, the dates of fine payment are updated so that the driver is not affected by the time taken to transfer liability. In some circumstances, liability cannot be transferred and the fine is paid on your behalf by us. The lowest possible fine amount is paid and is charged directly to the customer. Please note, to dispute an offence, the authorities must be contacted directly. Details of the dispute process and all contact details for the authority will be detailed on the re-issued penalty charge notice that you will receive.
