However, they pale before those problems faced by some unnamed Swedish citizen in Switzerland. 37-year-old man, whose name police did not disclose, led its Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG, equipped with 570-horsepower engine. Instrument readings sports car owner is not particularly watched, but observational road police have recorded the speed of 290 km / h with the permitted 120 km / h. Now hapless rider faces a fine of 1 million Swiss francs ($ 950 thousand). Speeding more than 25 km / h on local laws is a criminal offense, and the size of penalty is calculated based on the income of the offender.
