Swedish day fines have, contrary to its Finnish counterparts, a maximum limit so as not to render too excessive of a fine should the offender have a very large income.

This is such a joke. One of the good features is to force rich people to also respect the laws. But politicians have to get away with stuff I guess.

Honestly better if more areas had these. They should be based on all assets someone holds, wherever in the world.
