No appeal is possible against it. It will become ineffective unless within four weeks after having been imposed the fine is paid using the form as stated in para 4. After a fine without identification has become ineffective, the uthority shall proceed in accordance with § 34.Payment of the fine by remittance (para 4) shall be considered to have been effected in time if the amount has been transferred to the account number stated in the form, if the payment order contains the complete, correct EDP identification number stated on the form and the amount of the fine is credited to the recipient's account by the due date.(7) If the amount of the fine is paid by the due date using the form (para 4), the authority shall definitely dispense with searching for the unknown offender and prosecuting him.(8) The fine without identification must neither be mentioned in officialrecords nor on occasion of imposing a sentence in an administrative penalproceeding.

(1) The authority may authorize specially trained officers of the police force to impose and collect police fines for certain administrative offences noticed by them on duty or personally admitted to them. Unless the administrative regulations determine a maximum amount for a fine to be collected for administrative offences, a generally applicable amount, to be decided in advance, of up-to 36 euros shall be determined by the authority. If the authorizing authority is not at the same time the supervising authority, the authorization can be given only with the consent of the supervising authority.(2) The executive officers (para 1) may also be authorized by the authority to hand over to the person fined a form suitable for payment by post bank or deposit the form on the place of the offence if no specific person is identified.
