Traffic Tickets are Getting out of Hand

**The Most Expensive Traffic Tickets in the World**

In Kansas, a man was given $100,000 bail and his car was seized after being caught evading four police departments at once. This incident marks the beginning of a list of ludicrously priced traffic tickets from around the world.

**Income-Based Fines in Finland**

Some European countries have unique ways of determining ticket prices. In Finland, for example, the cost of a ticket is based on your income, not just how much you were going over the speed limit. This method aims to make traffic fines more fair and less burdensome on low-income individuals.

**Anders Vilclo: A Repeat Offender**

In June 2023, Anders Vilclo, one of Finland's wealthiest men, was caught driving his Bentley at 50 mph in a 30 mph zone. He was fined $129,000 for this infraction. This is not the first time Vilclo has been issued fines; he had previously received a fine of $63,000 in 2018 and another one of $95,000 in 2013.

**NHL Player Rasmus Rantanen's Fine**

In 2019, NHL player Rasmus Rantanen was stopped by police for doing 50 mph in a 25 mph zone while driving his Mercedes G Wagon. Despite earning his income abroad, the fine was still based on his income and cost him $135,000.

**The Sausage Prince's Ticket**

Jesse Sala, known as the "Sausage Prince" due to his finish sausage business, was ticketed for doing 50 mph in a 25 mph zone. His fine of $217,000 was particularly steep given that his income is over $7 million per year.

**Swiss Millionaire's Record-Breaking Fine**

In January 2010, a Swiss millionaire was caught driving his Ferrari at 85 mph through a village with a 50 mph speed limit. The fine of $290,000 set a new record for Switzerland and would only stand for seven months before being broken by another incident.

**The Most Expensive Traffic Ticket Ever**

In August 2010, a Swedish motorist was clocked driving his Mercedes SLS at an astonishing 180 mph, 106 mph over the speed limit. The fine of $1,924,345 is still the most expensive traffic ticket ever recorded.

**Conclusion**

These incidents highlight the sometimes absurd and often costly consequences of speeding in certain countries. As we conclude this article, it's clear that traffic fines can be a significant burden on individuals, regardless of their income or social status.

once the Bob's caught up with him he was summoned to court and find one shilling spoiler alert this is going to be the cheapest ticket on the list but can you really even blame him for speeding because the speedometer wasn't even invented for another five years that's called a loophole but just 3 years later the first speeding ticket in the US was issued and it was actually in an electric car called the electr bat Taxi Driver Jacob German was doing 12 in an eight Zone and was arrested and thrown in jail and that brings us to the first real speeding ticket over 100 years later a time I

images from the stop on social media with a caption 154 is the state route not the speed limit proving one more time cops are fun honey a copon actually tried to fight the ticket and pled not guilty the judge suspended his license for 30 days and he was fined $1,950 I mean honestly it's pretty lenient considering that he was going 97 miles over the speed limit for number three we're heading

amateur race car driver Ronald close was clocked doing 156 m milph in his BMW M3 CSL now if that's all he was doing he probably wouldn't have made this list but the inflated price of this ticket probably had to do with the fact that he was doing that speed oh he was talking on his cell phone with the added charges a Scottish race car driver had to pay a fine of $4,644.00 per hour on his Honda CBR motorcycle probably related to Jeremiah I don't know he outran police but was found and identified later in a town he negotiated to pay a $112,000 fine to avoid jail time and having his license revoked this is the record for the most expensive ticket in Canada honestly I'm surprised that it was so high if you're driving a car you have a lot more chance of hitting and killing another person so your fine should be more but if you're on a motorcycle fun fact in Canada they call jail the goose CP fun little fact to impress Maddie mat the next time you're eating at one of its restaurants

Audi R8 to be specific he got caught because UK uses speed cameras to deter speeding on major highways allegedly he joked with the officers and asked can we call it 98 they were like no this is no laughing matter for the UK court system later pickup and his attorneys challenged the offense by questioning whether or not it was even his car that the speed camera caught and argued that the cameras

was charged 675 lb for speeding and an additional 10,425 5 lb to cover the prosecutions bill for all that speed camera Runway stuff for Grand sum of £1,000 or $177,400 sometimes you just got to swallow your pride and plead guilty but the British Bad Boys Don't sto there those pesky cameras came back to bite our next driver when they caught him speeding on 23 separate occasions driver Marius Ballin never exceeded 93 mph but the fact that he refused to identified the driver of the vehicle likely him led to an accumulation of fines adding up to1 18,000 $300 his license was suspended for 30

for 3 to 4 hours and triggered a total of 33 speed camera finds exceeding 150 mph at times once the rental company was made aware of these fines they filed for a travel ban on the tourist to prevent him from leaving the country but as fines in the UAE are the responsibility of the rental company the crest was denied Hashi was unable to leave the country without his passport and the two parties entered a sort of stal me the total of all the fines added up to $488,000 and the two parties went back and forth for over a week until eventually working out an undisclosed settlement now in the US there are caps on how much a ticket can cost you you for example Oregon and Virginia have the most severe maximum speeding fines in the US which can top out at $2,689 in Oregon and $2,500 and a year in jail in Virginia for going 20 plus miles per hour over so the rest of the list is mostly going to be overseas but this next defense is worse than any fine you could imagine possibly the most

countries like Finland the price of a ticket isn't based on how much you were going over the speed limit instead the cost of the ticket is based on your income which in my humble opinion is more fair
