Absent the drug-induced reckless sociopathy, what are speed enforcement and penalties like in Switzerland more generally?

"I can't remember a case this serious,"

That would barely raise an eyebrow here in the US, especially in Los Angeles.

No, dont' speed in Norway or Finland.

Finland has the highest fine on record at $200k in 2002.

Norway (I'm pretty sure) can levy up to 10% of your annual salary.

Is that base or base and bonus?

Haha, I've seen so many episodes of "World's Wildest Police Videos"... that probably wouldn't make it. It's true that like 99% of the videos are from the US, for some reason no one really does crime like your average dumb American.

That's not true at all - we just have a more marketable version of it.

The Swiss are simply adorable.
