          Do you have a reference? I could only find this:

          If we are unable to transfer the case to another EU Member State, your name will be added to the Dutch Tracing Register. This means that an investigating officer (such as a police officer or a customs officer) can stop you and ask you to pay the fine on the spot. If you fail to do so, they can impound your vehicle.

          Closest:

          In addition, if you’re driving a rental car, the rental company may be notified of the violation, and the fine may be deducted from your deposit or charged directly to your credit card.
