| The tycoon was reportedly driving a Ferrari 57km/h (35mph) over the limit |
A Swiss millionaire has been handed down a record speeding fine
of $290,000 (£180,000) by a court.
The man was reportedly caught driving a red Ferrari Testarossa
at 137km/h (85mph) through a village.
The penalty was calculated based on the unnamed motorist's
wealth - assessed by the court as $22.7m (£14.1m) - and because he was a repeat
offender.
It is more than double Switzerland's previous record speeding
fine - handed to a Porsche driver in Zurich in 2008.
In the latest case, the motorist was clocked speeding 57km/h
(35mph) faster than the limit, according to the cantonal court in St Gallen,
eastern Switzerland.
