From Silicon.com news:-

====================================================
One of the top members of Nokia's board has been handed the largest speeding fine in Finnish history.

Anssi Vanjoki was fined E116,000 (£70,000) for driving his motorbike at 75kph (46mph) in a 50kph (31mph) area.

All fines in Finland are based on how much people earn and in 1999 Vanjoki's earnings were £8.3m.

=====================================================

bet the beak had a wry smile on his face when they guy paid in cash!

If you check out the news in the speeding section you'll find he got it reduced dramatically on appeal. Don't think I'll be hooning it around Finland in the near future though

I think Norway is even worse than Finland.
