if you really want to make things ''fair'' dont use income alone... figure incomeXhours worked and you'd have to have a reasonable floor on this as some bozo who works part time under the table making 200/week working 15 hrs shouldnt have to pay 30 bucks for speeding whereas someone working 50 would have to pay 300

why? because its easier for the bozo to knock that 30 dollar fine than it is someone making a grand a week or whatever

''fairness'' has limitations

what about students? does some 16 year old driving 80 in a 55 get penalized less because he only makes 3 grand a year at a summer job?

keep speeding ticket fines the way it is... if youre broke like ive been and sped then you deserve to get a comparitively huge fine just like everyone else
