Getting fined is never fun. However, there are many reasons for this: speeding, not following a stop sign, or even inconvenient parking. In short, it’s hard to get away, and it happens to even the most experienced drivers. Therefore, no one is immune from a more or less severe sanction depending on the fault. But the story we’re telling you is a bit beyond comprehension and should keep you from parking anyway, you’ll see. This adventure takes place in Greece, or rather on the island of Rhodes, very popular among tourists in the summer season. But today’s story is about a resident who must have been really scared when she opened her mailbox a few days ago.

An incredible fine
A resident of a beautiful Greek island, the motorist did receive an envelope with a ticket. So far, nothing extraordinary, especially since this is a fine for inconvenient parking. A small crime that usually doesn’t cost much. Indeed, the fixed fine is only €35 in France, rising to €135 for very inconvenient or very dangerous parking. But when we opened the letter, our driver got a surprise that she probably wouldn’t have liked. And it was not for nothing that she was asked to pay not 6,000 or 60,000 euros, but 6,648,444 eurosas reported by the Greek daily newspaper Rodiaki.
A simple mistake
A completely insane amount, which clearly alarmed the offender, who quickly realized that it was a simple mistake. Then she went to the municipal office to inform the competent persons and above all to better understand the situation. Ironically, she even states “if I can’t pay by card, I’ll pay you in cash”. Of course, the policeman in front of her immediately reassures her, saying that considering the amount, this is obviously a mistake.
