Man hit with £80k speeding fine

A motorist in Finland got hit with an £80,000 speeding fine because he's so rich.

''Where to put it I do not know, but as it is now, it is unreasonable.''

Anders Wiklof, who is from Sweden, was handed the extraordinary fine in Finland - where fines are distributed based on a person's wealth - and blasted it as ''unreasonable''.

He said: ''I'd rather put that money on the elderly, health, day care or whatever. I have only myself to blame, but one can question whether it is fair.

''Should I drive too fast in Sweden, I would have received 4000 crowns (£385) in fines and there is a huge difference.

''There should be a ceiling, it would be more fair.

''Where to put it I do not know, but as it is now, it is unreasonable.''
