German police say a motorist has been clocked driving at more than 199 mph on the Autobahn west of Berlin. He was traveling at more than 124 mph above the speed limit.
All fines should be scaled with income, like Finnish speeding tickets. A Finnish businessman was fined 120 000€ for driving 80kmh in a 50kmh zone.
This of course wasn’t his first offence, having been fined many tens of thousands of euros beforehand. Makes me wonder though, why not just take his license away…
Oh I know, because he’s rich enough to pay off the judges

You really can’t pay off judges here. But if you can show that taking your license away would make things considerable difficult for you (like losing income) they’ll let you keep it on certain cases.
You really believe that our judges and the rest of the justice system are incorruptible?
Gee, I guess people like Vornanen have already been sentenced. Or did everyone just forget that a cop got blackout drunk, harassed a teenager and then shot a gun in the middle of Helsinki over a year ago? A pretty clear open and shut case which should’ve led to him being fired from the force but nope, he’s still even in politics and will be allowed to have the politicians pension.
You really got to be a bootlicker to believe that our justice system isn’t available for purchase

It’s not in a sense that’s globally understood. Your Joe Average can’t just bribe their way out of anything. Political and other social cirles and generic cronyism is another matter, but even there currency is pretty often something else than money.
