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?

    There are more than that.

    Source: we use them and we’re not on that list. Kinda weird that Macau snuck in there before us, honestly. Maybe because here there are hard amount caps and in practice the system is used more as a tool to update fine amounts at intervals than as a hard math way to relate to income? I don’t know if that ends up being the case in other places applying the system.

        I don’t typically broadcast that. Not that you couldn’t put it together if you stalked me for a while. But also, maybe don’t do that if I don’t broadcast it.
