It is not a tasteful dish to receive a traffic penalty but at least now you won’t have to go anywhere to pay for it. You can do it with your mobile in no time. This is the process.
Nobody wants get a traffic ticket but when the sanction arrives in the form of a letter and one himself verifies that he has indeed been “caught” by the authorities committing an infraction, the first thing he does after bowing his head and acknowledging the sanction is to look at how much time he has to pay it and how he has to do it. In this last aspect, there are many fines that end up being paid almost the day before they expire due to the negligence of the users themselves.
But the advantage of living in the times we live in is that one can pay the import without even getting up from the sofa. The digitization, in this case, of the Directorate General of Traffic (in case it was the broadcaster), has made life easier for drivers. Because although the Traffic Executive began to take its first steps in digitalization with the payment of fines through the Internet, in its goal of being 3.0 it is also possible to do it from the mobile phone.
So you can pay a fine from your mobile
App myDGT
Today few people do not have a smartphone in the propiety. In fact, according to a study of the Digital report prepared by Hootsuite, in 2021 there were 54.34 million mobile phones connected, which represents 116.2% of the population. It is true that many users will have two lines and two terminals, but the reality is that practically the entire spectrum is capable of carrying out procedures through mobile phones. Having said that, steps to pay a traffic ticket through the smartphone they are very simple.
The first thing you have to do, logically and to facilitate the process, is download the miDGT application for free from the store (either Google Play for Android or Apple Store for iPhone). Access can be done with your digital certificate, credentials [email protected] or with your personal data and a password that they will send you via SMS to the mobile that they have registered in your name.
To pay a fine from the app, you must go to main menu of the application and enter the ‘My fines’ section and then click on ‘Pending’. All the data related to the sanction will appear there: file number, car registration, date of the complaint, province, the amount and the amount to be paid, as long as we are in a voluntary period that reduces it by half. only if necessary identify the driver you should enter the data of the sanctioned person to, later, give him to pay a fine. Once made, the email you have registered will receive the information to complete the payment.
With mobile but without app
If you do not have the application installed, the process is also simple although you will have to perform some more step. The steps to follow are, enter the browser you have installed and enter the DGT website. Remember that if you make the payment by this means, you need to have the notification date and the file number. The notification date is when you receive the notification at your home or the day it is delivered to you by hand by a Civil Guard agent. Sanctions have long had a QR code that facilitates the display of data. Enter the total amount of the fine (not including the 50% reduction), and they will indicate what is pending payment. You give him to pay a fine and you will finish the process. It should be noted that if you access with prior identification, we can inform you of the fines that you have pending payment, and see the history of sanctions imposed. If you detect any anomaly during the payment or afterwards, you will have to request a refund of the payment of the fine.
