Not sure if the rules have changed with the recent 'sharing' (ie our gov selling/giving details to Euro law enforcement) but I got stopped speeding a few years back in France and was given an on the spot fine (around £200).
A couple of months later I received a letter from the French courts asking for an extra £20 or so, I 'filed' said letter and have heard nothing more about it.
I have been back to France by car a few times since with no bother but not in that vehicle and not been stopped by Police which, I guess would be the only way they could catch up with me if they were so inclined.
I don't think I'm on Interpol's most wanted list though.
As for Italian fines in the post, I would 'file' the same way that I did with the French letter (Fnarr) above, actually given the shortage of toilet paper...
