Speeding is the most common traffic offense with around 42 million speeding tickets issued in the US each year.
In Finland, things work a little differently the amount you pay for a speeding ticket depends on how much you earn a year.
In 2023 a 76-year-old Finnish millionaire got slapped $130,000 fine for going over the speed limit of more than 18.6mph.
(Don’t that just make your mind boggle? That’s more than the average person earns in a whole year and more.)
In a zone that was roughly 32mph.
And had his license suspended for 10 days.
Said to be the world’s highest-ever fine…
The Nya Aaland newspaper reported:
“I really regret the matter,” Wiklöf was quoted as saying. “I had just started slowing down, but I guess that didn’t happen fast enough. It’s how it goes.”
That money was probably peanuts for that guy, lol.
(Check the P.S. below for something that won’t cost you an arm and a leg.)
Hope you’ve had a great Monday.
Zaf.
