What is the Largest Speeding Fine Ever Given?

In Finland, speeding fines are based on annual income, and the largest fine
is estimated to have been $200,000.

As of 2014, the largest speeding fine ever given was estimated to be
$200,000 US Dollars (USD), given in 2002 to a driver in Finland. Speeding

in a 25 mph (40.23 km/h) zone. Another of the world's most expensive

up to $25,000 USD, regardless of income. The average US speeding fine is
about $150 USD.
