billh Posted January 8, 2010 Share Posted January 8, 2010 I was just reading this on Yahoo a driver in Switzerland was fined $290,000. Judges at the cantonal court in St. Gallen, in eastern Switzerland, based the record-breaking fine on the speeder's estimated wealth of over $20 million. A statement on the court's Web site says the driver — a repeat offender — drove up to 35 miles an hour (57 kilometers an hour) faster than the 50-mile-an-hour (80-kilometer-an-hour) limit. http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20100107/ap_on_fe_st/eu_odd_switzerland_huge_speeding_fine "I'm Retired" Donations PayPal.Me/artistview .

EricVdM Posted January 8, 2010 Share Posted January 8, 2010 if you see what wealth they have is that only a small amount. When the ordinary people ( like us) had to pay it, it would have be equal on only (?) a $ 20 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WavestreamingConnect Posted January 8, 2010 Share Posted January 8, 2010 That's HUGE! Fair point made by Eric though, but i'm not really sure if it should be based on your wealth. Ah well, not such a big chop on their savings! James Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
