Challenging GITD Decisions – How to Effectively Defend Against a Fine?

In Poland, transport companies are increasingly facing severe fines imposed by the General Inspectorate of Road Transport (GITD). These may result from exceeding driver working hours, missing documentation, or formal errors. However, not every decision is final – it is possible to effectively appeal a GITD decision and avoid significant financial losses. A prompt response and professionally prepared documents are key to success.

 

GITD Fine – When and How Can It Be Appealed?

A GITD fine is more than just a financial issue. For a transport company, it can mean reputational damage and operational disruptions. Often, a penalty is imposed during a roadside inspection even if the factual circumstances are questionable. In such cases, it is worth exercising the right to file an objection or request the annulment of the fine. Each case requires individual analysis, considering the provisions of the Road Transport Act, the Administrative Procedure Code, and the practices of the supervisory authorities. Legal assistance enables the development of arguments that genuinely increase the chances of having the fine cancelled.

 

Fines for Carriers – Comprehensive Legal Assistance

Fines for carriers can take various forms: from administrative penalties to a ban on business activity or even liability for the driver. They often arise from unclear regulations, misinterpretation of tachograph data, or inspection errors. That is why it is essential to seek help from a law firm that understands the realities of the transport industry. A lawyer examines not only the content of the decision but also the legality of the entire procedure – from the moment the vehicle is stopped to the issuance of the administrative act. This makes it possible not only to reduce the amount of the fine but even to cancel it completely.

Consultant offers professional support in preparing appeals, representing clients before administrative authorities, and providing comprehensive legal assistance in matters related to road transport. Our goal is to effectively protect your company’s interests and minimise operational risks.
