Think the French are Inefficient?

Just try to get away from their automated traffic ticket system:
Going 50 MPH in a 35 MPH zone at night in a rental car and the rental company had my country of residence incorrect as you can see above!  Anyone renting a car in Corsica in English must be from Great Britain, right?

When I saw the automated camera flash late one night, I figured, "What are the odds the French government would ever find me?"

Apparently higher than I thought...

Sigh, let this be a lesson to you all:  Don't mess with French government revenue from tourists!  They are serious about that!

P.S. After I paid the fine online, my credit company called me to ask if it was a bogus charge, "I wish" I responded...
