This has, of course, lead to some of history’s biggest speeding fines. Back in 2002, former Nokia director Anssi Vanjoki was caught driving 47mph in a 30mph zone on his motorbike and was fined $103,600. More recently, in 2015, Reima Kuisla, a Finnish businessman, had to pay $62,000 for driving 15mph above the 30mph speed limit.
Yep, you’ve already guessed where this is going. Guinness World Records claim that the largest speeding ticket belongs to a Swiss man who was caught driving 85mph in a 50mph zone in St. Gallen, Switzerland. He was fined for $290,000 US Dollars. The man was driving a Ferrari Testarossa, and the fine was based on his 22.7 million dollar wealth. The fine was made higher as he was a repeat offender.
