11 speeding and red light incidents… less than $1200??? Thats absurd.
11 separate incidents being caught doing behaviour that has an increased chance of killing/maiming someone… and less than $1200 in fines to deter that???
this person has proven that they REGULARLY break the law in a dangerous way… and they still allow him to get behind the wheel every morning… and one day when he kills someone, they’ll call it an “accident”
There’s nothing accidental about allowing this person to operate a 3 ton weapon every day
Absolutely! 19 in 4 years is crazy. I’ve gotten 2 in 23 years, running a yellow light and not realizing the speed limit changes at night in Texas. Both of those fines were way more than $50. New York is dumb.
The fine should go up exponentially with the number of violations (as well as income). First ticket? You screwed up. Tenth? You clearly don’t care. Hundredth? You’re doing it on purpose.
Apparently for NYC you can just search and see the amount of traffic violations, and this dickhead has a LOT
Damn.
Holy shit I’ve only gotten 1 ticket in my entire life and it was BS. It’s…really not hard to not break traffic laws.

I feel like at some point those should start getting points against your license or something.

Seriously, Ive gotten one ticket in 20 years. One.
Alright there might be a little bit of capitalism at play. Fines so low they encourage people to just pay them.
Too steep and people will either avoid the infraction or dodge paying altogether.
So this is literally a rich people get to be assholes fee.
Where is it, Finland, that has fines as a percentage of income?
I think it’s a great policy
Yep! They gave one guy a €100,000 ticket for speeding, lol.

This guy pays about $200 a year to drive like an asshole.
At that point it’s just a subscription product.
Bro was at like 19 on just that license plate
Would help a lot, if violations did not only cost money, but the driver’s license eventually.
Probably a cop
