World\'s most expensive speeding ticket $103,600

~~~from the web~~~
Anssi Vanjoki, a senior executive of the world's largest mobile phone maker Nokia is appealing against a record 116,000 ($ 103,600) fine for speeding because his income has dropped, Finnish media said on Monday. Vanjoki was caught racing his motorbike down a Helsinki street in October at 75 kmph (47 mph) in a 50kmph zone. Finnish traffic fines vary according to the offender's average income and Vanjoki's income dropped considerably in 2001 as Nokia's share price fell.

Now that would make me stay within the speed limit. With that kind of fine, I would have to sell the farm.

I don't feel to sorry for this guy for his ticket. As I Understand it, these European countries tax rates are exceptionaly high. A danish girl say's that they are pretty close to 80%, yes 80% in that country - But they do get taken care of upon retirement. Seem's as if your just working for the gov't!

Thomas...

That's an excellent idea for Muhammad...

He can get these in multiple colors and everyone can buy "multiple" flags... for their compact tractor...

so from afar... "Hey... Honey... is that a TractorByNet flag... flying on that beautiful compact tractor out there in the lagoon...?"

"No Dear... that's just Glenmac stuck again..." /w3tcompact/icons/tongue.gif/w3tcompact/icons/smile.gif
