Reminder that the rules for lemmy.ca also apply here:
Its time to increase fines for drivers*
And make fine based on income, not just static sum. Works well in Finland.
Income method breaks down for extremely wealthy. Top net worth individuals typically have very low or zero income and most of their wealth comes from assets.
Make it like a lien, but against their average yearly capital gains
This would just encourage cops to target people they perceive as wealthy, and not bother with people who look poor
I still see that as a positive trend...
Sounds great to me!
Wait, why would cops get to keep the fines???
