That makes no sense. Unless they changed it very recently, you should just have received a paper letter from the CJIB. And they just take the money, you don't have to give it to them (you can pay early, but they don't need your bank details, they already have them).

Well they are part of the government, they have access to literally anything you own including your own person.

They've never taken the money.
They sent me letters before, but I don't want paper so I receive everything online on mijnoverheid.
Of course I did not expect mijnoverheid to be this insecure

Thanks government, for making my speeding ticket public That's the actual punishment now and not the ticket. Congratulations, you made it into the driving hazard database.

You get what you pay for.
Except in the case of government that seems to be an inverse relationship.

And it probably only cost about eight times the going rate to get the site running -- which is OK, because they'll just focus the police's attention on drawing in money for parking and speeding.

Pedantic Mode On:
But law enforcement (including traffic) isn't actually a government function,
it's civil service.
Pedantic Mode Off:
Maybe they are trying out name & shame?

5 km/hr? That's a little more than 3mph US. Me thinks the limit is a bit tight.
On my way to work that would nail EVERY car including the sheriff. posted speed on major cross street - 72 km/hr. Actual speed? More like 110+ km/hr at the bottom of the hill, average would be around 90.
You were probably at the bottom of a long hill too...

In Aus when I was there a while back they were talking about reducing tolerance to 3km/h with some high ranking police even suggesting 1, they said seeing as cars are so well made these days and speedo's are going digital (even if rendered on an analog display), so really no excuse for being over the speed limit.
People said "but, there's still a lot of older cars on the road though, and they could be 10% out (the previous accepted [but actually unofficial] tolerance limit)"
Response was: "then drive 10% below the limit per your speedo and you will be fine even if it is out that much. Anyway just because the speed limit is for instance 50, doesn't mean you have to go that fast"
Seems Aus police have decided their job description includes an anti-fun role.

They apparently have a lot of trust in the calibration of their speed detection equipment. Oh, and cars are well made, but their speedometers intentionally read 5-10% over the actual speed. Marching Morons and all that.
We can program with only 1's, but if all you've got are zeros, you've got nothing.

Well, I was actually driving 8 km/hr too fast, but 5 km/hr after correction.
It's stupid, that road has about 20 traffic lights and every traffic light has a camera.
I know this and I watched my speed, yet they still caught me
To be fair, it's a straight two lane road, there was no one there, and the limit is 50 km/hr... 50! Do they want me to fall asleep behind the wheel?
