In Sweden your fine is dependent upon how fast you are going and how much money you have. BBC News - Swede faces world-record $1m speeding penalty. so this young man got a rather impressive fine.

Hmm, I guess that confiscating the car is one punishment for that sort of serious speeding offence, or perhaps a month in detention.
