A wealthy driver in Finland's Åland Islands has been fined over €120,000 for speeding, where the price of speeding is determined by your income. It's his third major fine in a decade, and the first to crack six figures.

Anders Wiklöf was driving 82 kilometers per hour in a 50 kilometer per hour zone when police stopped and ticketed him on Saturday. Along with getting the fine, he had his driver's license suspended for 10 days.
