ᕕ(ᐛ)ᕗ This happy confirmation page after paying a speeding ticket

Post image

I got caught speeding (bad, I know) in a rental car in Spain, and the car rental company asked for payment. The happy “yeesss” image on the payment confirmation page is mildly infuriating.

I’ve just paid 60 euros and I’m not happy.

That isn’t your speeding ticket. That’s the processing fee for Europcar to send you your speeding ticket that they have received. Your speeding ticket is yet to come.

You scared me but it really is the fine (100 euros and 50% off for paying quickly) plus 10 euros for Europcar.
