Italian Woman Receives $44,500 Parking Ticket?

      Police in Sicily issued a whopping 32,000 euros ($44,500) fine for an illegally parked car after adding up 2,000 years of interest by mistake, Italy’s Repubblica newspaper said Wednesday.

     The interest due was calculated from the year 208 A.D. after a policeman dated the fine to the year  208 instead of 2008. “When she opened the envelope with the parking fine, the owner of the vehicle had a dizzy turn and had to be taken to hospital,” the paper said on its website.
