There’s always gonna be these people knowingly breaking the law if they can easily afford the fines. Do you think she would keep driving without her seat belt and smoking wherever she pleases if she was fined say 10% of her yearly income every time she was caught?
The court sentences a person to say 28 day fines based on the severity of the crime, the day fine’s value is determined by the income of the person sentenced.
So a rich guy will pay far more for the same infraction than a poor guy.
The system is meant to equalize the concequenses regardless of how much moneybyou have.
Thanks for the response.
I have always thought fines should be relative so this is a great way of doing it imo.
