    “unintentionally exceeded the speed limit for a short period.”

    No one drives at 225km/h unintentionally, lol.

    Actually a nice example that no one should be above the law. But done in the most idiotic and dangerous way possible. Also the fine is probably a drop in a bucket for this guy.

      A fine of £165… Not sure how this works in Turkey but in most places the fine for doing so much over the limit would cost a lot more

    Turkey holding their own government officials accountable? The US isn’t even capable of that most of the time.

    listening to folk songs and clips of speeches by President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan.

    Lol. Gotta glaze the supreme leader while you drive recklessly.

    A fine the equals £165 is tiny! Especially for a minister

    I like the fines based on income percentage. Anything else just puts a pricetag on doing something illegal

    That road is mostly empty. I couldn’t give two fucks.

    What an absolute waste of energy.
