What happens if I don't pay a bus fine in Italy?


What happens if I don't pay a bus fine in Italy? Normally when you get fined for fare evasion the fine is an administrative one. So they will send you a bill to your home address, and if you do not pay, a reminder. If you do not do that they may, or may not, decide to take this to court.


Do you have to validate bus tickets in Italy?

Tickets must be validated once boarding the bus (just once even if using multiple times during the 100 minutes) by inserting the ticket into the yellow machines located either towards the front or back of the bus. Once validated the ticket will be printed with an expiry time (scadenza).
