EPP leader Donald Tusk's driving licence suspended

Polish police temporarily suspended the driving license of former top European Union official Donald Tusk on Saturday and fined him for speeding.

Tusk, 64, who is now the head of Poland's main opposition party, Civic Platform, said Saturday on Twitter that the penalty was “adequate” and he accepted it “without discussion.”

His license was suspended for three months and he received 10 penalty points and a speeding ticket. Police in Mlawa, in central Poland, said the speed limit is 50 kilometers per hour but Tusk exceeded the speed limit by over 50 kilometers.
