★The amount you get fined for speeding in Finland depends on the amount you earn. Traffic fines are based on two factors: the severity of the offense and the driver’s income.

★Finland is known to be the Land of a Thousand Lakes. There are exactly 187,888 lakes (larger than 500 m²) and 179,584 islands within the territory of Finland.

★It is also called The Land of Midnight Sun, because in June and July the sun shines all day and all night in the north, not dropping below the horizon.
