￡650,000 fine for speeding

罰65萬英鎊:超車的代價

A Swedish man has been handed what is believed to be the world's largest speeding fine, which is expected to cost him ￡650,000，the Guardian of London reported. The 37-year-old man was driving at 2.5 times the speed limit when he was pulled over by traffic police in Switzerland. The motorist was traveling faster than any other person caught speeding in the country, according to prosecutors. In Switzerland, speeding fines are calculated using a formula that takes into consideration the motorist's income and the severity of the speed.

據(jù)英國《衛(wèi)報》報道，一名在瑞士馬路上瘋狂飚車的司機將面臨65萬英鎊的巨額罰款，或創(chuàng)下超速罰金的最高世界紀(jì)錄。這名司機今年37歲，來自瑞典。當(dāng)他被警方攔下時，駕駛速度達到了瑞士最高限速的2.5倍，由此也打破了瑞士國內(nèi)的超速紀(jì)錄。根據(jù)瑞士法律，超車罰款金額視違章司機的收入和超速的嚴(yán)重性而定。
