Over speed tickets in Finland

Over speed tickets in Finland!
If You have good salary you have to pay more and if You are jobless you get lower payments.
I Give some examples.


ONLY FOR OVER SPEEDS nothing else.
  1. One guy drive 51 miles per hour he get $165500 ticket and speed limit was 37 miles per hour (he's salary in year is about $13 000 000) and one small curio, if his speed would have been 49 miles per hour he would get only $150 ticket.
  2. One guy drive 58 miles per hour he get $ 2000 ticket speed limit was 37 miles per hour (he's salary in year is about $120 000) and one small curio, if his speed would have been 49 miles per hour he would get only $150 ticket.
  3. One guy drive 123 miles per hour he get $1 700 ticket and speed limit was 63 miles per hour (he's salary in year is about $60 000) and one small curio, if his speed would have been 75 miles per hour he would get only $150 ticket. He lose driving license 3 months.
  4. One guy drive 125 miles per hour he get $ 150 ticket and speed limit was 75 miles per hour (he's salary in year is about $15 000) and one small curio, if his speed would have been 87 miles per hour he would get also $150 ticket. ofcourse he lose driving license 6 months.
  5. One guy drive 125 miles per hour he get $ 346 000 ticket and speed limit was 75 miles per hour (he's salary in year is about $6 200 000) and one small curio, if his speed would have been 87 miles per hour he would get also $150 ticket.

In Ontario if you do 50kph over the speed limit your car is impounded for 7 days & license is suspended for 7 days on the spot. You also face a $2000 fine & possible jail time for the first offence. Second Offence is $10000

Pennsylvania: 36 MPH over the limit, lose your license

New Jersey: double the posted speed limit, lose your license.

That means in PA go 101 in a 65 you lose your license, but to lose your license in NJ you'll have to be going 130

Sometimes, I really have to watch the speedo on my daily driver, that I ain't killing this.

It's kind of worked. Last time I was on the 401, I kept it at 130 and not a penny over.

Is this a national speeding fine in Finland?

I think the equal treatment under law deal would make that a little hard to do here.

Yes it is.
If someone have money...he pays more.
I think it is good system. System make you think first what you gona make to do and when

By the way, if you know famous hockey player in Anahaim mighty ducks, (Finnish Flash) Teemu Selänne, he gets few years ago $385 000 ticket.
He drove small crash
