Sławek Szefs reports this rather rhetorical question has been publicly asked by the office of Poland's Financial Ombudsman.
Its head, Aleksandra Wiktorow, suggested that those who repeatedly infringe traffic rules should be given more careful scrutiny when it comes to calculating their annual vehicle insurance fees.
“If they constantly exceed speed limits, run red lights, cross double lines and so on, they pose a greater danger than others," Wiktorow told Polish Radio.
