In fact, the car was confiscated by police as security for the expected fine.
He should let them keep the car and just get a new one. Would be much cheaper

And since the fine is related to the persons income. 1 mil probably won't hurt him that much.

How the hell do the Swiss have access to whatever someone earns in Sweden? So much for the bank secrecy they once had . . .

And yeah, I drove that bit too last weekend. There's roadworks for half that stretch which is why they caught him. Despite what everyone says, they don't come down that hard on regular 120+ roads, but if there's roadworks or 120-gone-70-because-an-onramp-is-coming-up, you better watch out.

This is great news.

So if I'm on welfare and get caught speeding, the swiss will actually owe me money? Nice.

How the FVCK do they know how much someone makes outside their country!?! Makes me not want to ever live in Switzerland or even drive through there in my own car. The temptation to speed on some of those roads would be too great.

If I had my car over there for a summer, I would ship it across switzerland and rent a car there, let them confiscate that.
