  • The problem is his time is worth a lot more than those fines to him.

    US Speeding fines are significantly lower than fines in Britain, France Germany, Australia or Asia. Contrarily to a common myth, US cities/states don’t finance themselves with speeding fines. It’s a tiny tiny drop in the bucket in the total budget.

    One of the thing I noticed on US social media is that several american men (it’s always men) call major US cities crime-ridden democratic shitholes. They want harsh punishments for lawbreakers. These very same accounts don’t see breaking the law as a bad thing. Some even cheer attacks on cameras (destruction of public property). It’s actually insane that they don’t notice the hypocrisy.
