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.
Damn.

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.
