The 17 Bus Jut the two pints then, the stupid thing is that he then decides speeding is a good idea!!

The fine is too low, all fines should be based on earnings IMHO, my friend lost a week and a halfs wages when he got done, though doubt that would be popular with the rich.


Unfortunately, fines and penalties should fit the crime, not the perpatrator commiting them.

If the fine is to be a punishment it has to be relevant to the perpetrator

That was tried a few years ago and was abolished when people were getting ridiculous fines for Speeding etc...

In addition the maens testing didn't work.

Sometimes people with a higher salary actually have less disposable income!
