Some dude named Iliyan Barzev got his license yanked after speed cameras caught him going over the limit in the emergency lane on Trakia highway, but his engine had seized up, and he was literally just trying to get off the road without causing a massive pileup. Traffic police in Stara Zagora slapped him with a fine and took his license even though he had paperwork from roadside assistance, his insurance company, and witnesses proving his car was dying.
Barzev tried appealing and pointed out that there are no clear rules about how fast you can go when your vehicle is actively having a mechanical breakdown. Police eventually realized they had messed up and gave him his license back.
