In Embrach changed the father and the son the courts. Hardly any of the 41 had left-Year-old in the Parking lot to drive to Bülach, he got in a police control: 103 km/h resulted in the laser measurement. A little late for that technician had him ride on the front passenger seat, aware that he was too fast.

miles instead of kilometers per hour

Only now he realized his mistake. The electronic speedometer was in that section of the bülach road about 60 allowed to be displayed – but in "miles per hour" (mph), not kilometers per hour (km/h).

The assistant state attorney stated that the businessman had gone to the deduction of the tolerance 40 km/h too fast, what according to the sentence recommendation of the Supreme public Prosecutor's office for 120 days rates.

The district court upheld the conviction. The man had the ride of the car need to be familiar. "The not-quite-harmless Unsorgfalt could have been easily avoided."

The single judge reduced the sentence but the daily rates from 120 to 90, because the Assistant Prosecutor had withdrawn a mile tolerance is too little, the individual daily rate of 2700 to 1000 francs, because they had taken into account the assets to stark, and the buses from 10 000 to 5000 francs.
