The Polish opposition leader and former Prime Minister of Poland raced at 107 kilometers per hour in a 50 zone. Now he has to surrender his driver’s license for three months and pay a fine of the equivalent of 107 euros. The punishment was appropriate, he announced on Twitter on Saturday. “I accepted it without discussion,” he wrote.
The PAP news agency reported, citing the police, that the officials stopped the 64-year-old on Saturday morning near the town of Mlawa north of Warsaw because he was traveling at 107 kilometers per hour within a town. 50 kilometers per hour are allowed there. Tusk is the chairman of Poland’s largest opposition party, the liberal-conservative Civic Platform (PO). Tusk is considered the figurehead of the Europe-friendly camp in Poland, where the specter of a “Polexit” is currently avoiding the controversial policy of the right-wing conservative ruling party PiS (Law and Justice).
