if there was some kind of baseline - like, AT LEAST a $50 ticket - I'd be okay with it.

I see lots of local broke people who drive slow because they can't afford a ticket.  if it was suddenly a $6 ticket, they'd make the road a lot more dangerously.

And saying junkies hurt nobody but themselves - I have to disagree.  They don't just stay in their house and do drugs.  They drive under the influence, they find other ways to fck up the world.

I'm a libertarian but I understand if you legalized meth and H and crack tomorrow, people wouldn't just stay home and do it.  They'd shoot up on playgrounds.  people, in general, are inconsiderate.

ofc there's gonna be a baseline, and I'd suggest an upper limit as well, but in between it's based on income.

I have no idea why Coach is taking stabs at countries that have a far better healthcare system in place than the US. Coach have you ever been to north-western Europe?

ahhh speeding is okay if you drive a BMW or similar...only regular boring cars should get speeding tickets

[jesusbod]

thats the way it should be , fines should be based on % of your income not a flat rate , people who are rich laugh at 500$ fines , while people making 24 k a year get crippled by it , fucking up there rent and groceries ,socialism rules , props to switzerland

Socialist Speeding tickets.. Yeah... That is exactly what we need...

I agree with the fine. It should be based more on persons income. Of course there should be limit set as well. To the person who said that if it was the case then the poor people would speed without a care since their ticket would only be 6 dollars or so. Thats why if you get 3 speeding tickets in a year your license should be suspended and if you get caught driving with suspended license you go to jail.

I also think that most of the drugs should be legalized if you doing it in your own house. If you are caught doing it in public or driving in public then you should be taken to jail just like with drunk driving.

We should not make something illegal based on WHAT IF'S!!!!  People need to take responsibility for their own action and other people need to stop policing others and stop minding their own business if it brings NO harm to them. If and when person does something that he was not supposed to do hen that and only that person should be dealt with. Its wrong to take away things from whole society based on bad actions of few bad apples and based on WHAT IF'S.
