To reduce the number of road accidents, some countries are coming with innovative ways to stop the speed with which drivers move.
Finland is pursuing a methodology for imposing daily fines that are estimated on the management's income, which travels rapidly on allowed rates.
The higher the speed on a driver's allowed rate, the bigger the number of daily fines they will receive, writes CHAScan.
Finland is not the only country that applies the so-called progressive punishment for speeding fines, records albinfo.ch.
Switzerland also uses a similar system and currently holds the world record for fines.
Great Britain is another country that imposed tough speed measures in 2017. Drivers were fined up to 175% of their weekly income, depending on the severity of the work done. However, the fine is limited to 2,500 pounds.
While European countries lead for high speed fines, they also practice car selection as well as the imprisonment of drivers when they repeatedly violate the speed limit. This is true in countries such as France, Finland, Spain, and Germany.
