From my own experience I know it never used to be the case, but having just returned from a trip overseas with my son-in-law (who was driving his own car) has just received not one but two 'violation notice' - speeding tickets from France.
And his job, he's a policeman but to be fair he's picked up a couple over here as well so somebody needs to slow down if they are not chasing anybody.
Lets see, forty five euros plus another forty five euros is... nearly enough for two coffees and a croissant!
