I was there for many years, mum was German a forces fraulein, my dad a tank soldier who stayed on. Promise not to laugh but my first bike was a 'Mofa' ...25km/h moped, a 'Prima Presto'. I got pulled a few times to pay DM10.00 spot fines, riding two up or not using the cycle path!

If your vehicle is not compliant you will get fined. Each time you get a fine it increases up to a max of £480!
You can't pay a daily charge, just stay out or get fined. A@#eholes!

McCabe-Thiele (Ted):
The UK  even when in the EU rarely pursued vehicles registered abroad.
