    So we were safe for that last time , looks like if you get caught then they will fine you in your own country and they can keep the money .

    Few hours ago got a cop pulled me to the side as I was speeding a bit.... much. 48km/h too fast to be precise (speedlimit was 100km/h). The limit for losing the license is 50km/h here... The fine will be steep... (I recon 300-350 euro) so be warned when driving thru Holland the next time guys!!
