Law will change very soon in France. @50km/h (31mph) over PSL you get
- a 3750€ (5250$) ticket, instead of 300€
- and 3 month prison
This is added to the the car confiscation, the 6 lost points on the driving license (out of 12) and its temporary cancellation of 6 months.
The same with others problems such as phoning while driving which goes from 2 points & 35€ to 3 points & 135€.
By now a stranger will have only the ticket, but France is working with all European countries to be able to apply prison and points/license cancellation too.
