OK, got flashed by a “fotoboks” here on the E6 (sortof a big fast A road) here in Norway, while driving a cage. Ticket just came with the post:
Clocked at: 93 km/h (57 mph)
Speed limit: 80 km/h (50 mph)
Speed over: 13 km/h (7 mph)
Fine: 2600 Norwegian kroners (216 UK pounds). Or three days in jail.
F**K THAT!!
I’d go with the jail option mate. You’d probably end up with some great stories for the kids! Whoops, sorry 
And a great opportunity to REALLY get your head round the lingo - at least you’d know what to say to the police next time you’re stopped for something similar!
My last ticket was 125mph in a 75mph zone… ticket was $195.00. I love America.
see you back here in a few days then…
I’d pay the fine rather than jail.
Having once spent 24 hours care of Wake County NC on a DUI (till my pissed ******* mates came to bail me out) - crappy is not the word.
Still don’t they all have playstations and saunas in Norway prison??
Do the time !!
Blame the other half for bringing you to such a naff country.
Leave on the next flight
and I,ll see you in Liberties Saturday with a cold one on the Bar waiting for ya !!
Problem Sorted !!
Remember the ‘Soap on a rope’ should be the first essential purchase from the prison shop. If its on the ground…its a trap 
Do neither, just never re-visit the country again… int that what clarkson does in america???
I crap my self every time I go back to US having left without paying my final years state and federal taxes. Think I owed about $2k if I remember my HR block filing correctly.
Still I guess that Bush has bigger fish to fry nowadays 
Just spoken to a mate over here in Spain who got caught speeding going to last years MOTOGP in Valencia at 175mph ish, he got escorted to the cashpoint and relieved of E600[£450] no points, no threat of jail, no ban etc. Nice.
Norway is not tolerant of recreational speeding, but having ridden there, I kind of accept it is not really a place for sportsbikes. Due to the damage caused by the hard frosts means the road surface can be very changeable, rain moves gravel/grit patches and there are massive Elg [moose] that suicidally jump out of the forests into your path . . . . . and a government that sticks +£10,000 tax on a new R1, meaning a 1998 model is still going to cost you around £9,000 . . . . so get your thrills off road, it is way more fun.
If you dont have the E600, they impound your bike/car till you pay, then you get it back. He stopped because he didnt think they had caught him. He has got caught at several roadside speedtraps but just does one, the Mossos D Esquadra [Local replacement for Guardia Civil that do traffic] have 2.0 TDS Passats that would struggle to catch a well ridden CX500 . . . .
I still use my UK plated bike & licence, as a “Stoopeed Engleesh Tourista who speaks leetle Spanish” cough cough …you usually just get a little finger wagging, however, when I am in England I would prefer a Spanish plate & licence . . . 
remember kids, driving offences are about to be standardised across Europe.
Basically, they’ll hunt you down here if you don’t pay a fine there from sometime next year.
I’d take the fine any day … just leave my f**kin licence and my life alone.
If they get greedy and in the UK thats as sure as Onions is onions, I’d do the jail.
As I understand it doing jail in the UK doesn’t wipe out a civil debt so I’d do the jail, do the jail, do the jail, …
… which cost around £300 a week! 
Is there any wonder we are taxed to death when muppets like that are in charge.
