Original Note:
Weed is not legal in the Netherlands. There is a national non-enforcement policy for weed up to 5 grams (for Dutch nationals, though enforcement of that differs per municipality). Her fine indicates she carried over 6 times that limit, meaning it became a crime. https://www.government.nl/topics/drugs/toleration-policy-regarding-soft-drugs-and-coffee-shops https://www.learndutch.org/beginners/drugs-and-the-netherlands-what-you-need-to-know-as-a-foreigner-coming-to-the-netherlands/
