How to get away with speeding: use a Polish license


How to get away with speeding: use a Polish license

In 2007, Irish police noticed they’d written over 50 tickets to a single driver, Prawo Jazdy. The individual had citations under many different addresses and police wondered why repeated punishment hadn’t changed the man’s driving habits.
