To bail out of such a fine, it is necessary to have rolled particularly fast, could conclude some from it. However, the offense committed by the Norwegian motorist is certainly serious but not extraordinary: in Belgium, at least 88,000 of them committed the same offense last year, according to figures from the federal police. His fault: having driven at 82 km/h instead of 50. His fine therefore amounts to €3,781 per kilometer-hour above the limit. “I really regret this case, he told our colleagues from Nya Åland. The speed had dropped from 70 to 50 km/h. I had just started to slow down, but I guess it didn’t happen fast enough.

Why such a fine for which, in Belgium, our motorist would have been penalized only 295 € ? You should know that in Norway, the amount of traffic fines is calculated on the basis of the seriousness of the offense and… the income of motorists. In order to avoid a certain feeling of impunity among the wealthiest if they were fined a few tens of euros.

However, our man is none other than the founder of an active holding company, among others, in real estate, hotels, tourism, wholesale trade. A company whose turnover amounts to several hundred million euros per year. He had already been sentenced to fines of €63,000 and €95,000 in the past.

Some Belgian drivers must be pleased that the proportional system set up by Oslo does not apply to us.
