The only question I have is whether these speeding fines will be applied retrospectively? <Gulp> In June I drove from Basel to Calais in a record breaking 5:50 hr and I must have been flashed more times than Paris Hilton
Castro, don't check your mailbox

This agreement with the French went into effect on Jan. 1, 2009

From the Le Matin article (in French):

"Depuis le début de l'année, l'autorité centrale française d'encaissement des amendes, basée à Rennes, peut obtenir les coordonnées des automobilistes helvétiques en infraction, par le biais du Centre de coopération policière et douanière franco-suisse."

Basically, the French can/will ask the Swiss for your information and they WILL receive it.
