In Turkey, the person renting a car is entered into the Police Vehicle Rental Notification System. Therefore, if there has been a violation, then the fines are fixed on you. At the same time, the rental company is notified of violations.   

We advise you to notify the rental company in time and pay the fines, otherwise, you will have trouble at the border. First, you have to pay a fine and only after that go through passport control. It may take a long time, and your plane may take off.

The best option is not to violate traffic rules and especially the speed limit.
