Fun Fact of the day: Drive slow, win dough
Many are celebrating International Lottery Day today (Aug. 27), kindling dreams of winning big with the purchase of a ticket. But today鈥檚 also an opportunity to mention that in Sweden, drivers could once indulge in that dream by avoiding tickets.
In 2010 Stockholm temporarily tested the Swedish Speed Camera Lottery. A traffic monitor automatically entered drivers who drove at or below the speed limit into the lottery, and the winnings were paid for by fines issued to speeders. It鈥檚 a shame the two-way incentive hasn鈥檛 caught on; we can all think of a local road or highway stretch that would make for a massive jackpot!
