It irks me when rich people will just pay the fine rather than following the law. Example: Parking in handicap spots and not caring about a $250 fine. It is like paying $5 parking fee for low income drivers.
Finland actually has speeding fines proportional to your income! In 2002, a Finnish millionaire was fined €103,000 (over $100,000 USD at the time) for going 75 km/h in a 50 km/h zone. (47mph in a 32mph zone)
Like the Tesla in New York City which has racked up $38,000 worth of parking tickets?
So if you are homeless, you can commit crimes for free?
If you are homeless, it costs almost nothing to park your Tesla in the handicapped space. Huge loophole.
Depends on the crime, but there have always been shit laws nobody enforces
Minimum sentencing.
