You are spoiled!

I've converted the fines to US dollars using todays rate:


In a 60km/h or lower zone:
-up to 5km/h over = 100$
-up to 10km/h over = 267$
-up to 15km/h over = 483$
-up to 20km/h over = 700$
-up to 25km/h over = 1083$
-more than 25km/h over = licence revoked (3months up to 2 years) + max fine

In a 70km/h or higher zone:
-up to 5km/h over = 100$
-up to 10km/h over = 267$
-up to 15km/h over = 433$
-up to 20km/h over = 600$
-up to 25km/h over = 817$
-up to 30km/h over = 1083$
-up to 35km/h over = 1300$
-more than 35km/h over = licence revoked (3months up to 2 years) + max fine

In a 90 zone (freeway)
35 - 40 km/h over = 1500$

Not obeying traffic signs = 700$

Not obeying red light = 867$

And the list goes on....

In Norway you are considered a criminal from the day you get your licence :frown:

WOW, thats is EXTREMELY expensive!!

And I thought where I am is bad enough!! I live in Vancouver BC Canada, I onced had a speeding ticket for going 100km/hr (on a weird part of the highway that actually is 60 km/hr that EVERYONE ignores). Because I did more than 40 km/hr more than the limit, by car got impounded for 7 business days which costed around $320, my excessive speeding ticket which is around $450, as well as a penalty from the ONLY car insurance company available in BC for around $320/year for the next three years. ALL IN ALL that ticket costed me almost $1,750+

Time to invest in a 9500ix =D

Pretty strict in Norway!

Ontario is bad too. Street racing/Stunt driving or 50km/h over and your car is impounded for a week, and up to a $10000 fine. Good luck with insurance after too. If you get kicked out and end up on facility insurance, you'll be paying $12-15k/year per car, and you'll be stuck there for at least 3 years until your record clears up.

It can basically end up being a $40k+ mistake.

Yeah, that place is where you end up if youre "fast" enough on the roads. (Yep, you can get jail time for speeding here )

Thats why I need a turbo kit so I can outrun the police

Your prison is like a country club compared to the USA and rest of the world.

It's nice to know that if I rape and kill a bunch of Viking's i'm guaranteed indoor rock clubing, female jogging partner, female prison guard, female dental care, flat screen TV, prison rock band, etc.

And the maximum time is 21 years.

But remember, a "prison year" is only 9 months here, so you'll never serve 21.
I know, I know, stupid, but thats what we get for having a socialist party in goverment....

FAKE... or actually, MISLEADING...
Note how this is EXACTLY the same fees as they were listed in "2011" supposedly? Unfortunately this is just recycled, incorrect information..
