Song posts must follow the 'Artist - Title (Description)' format with 80 character or less descriptions. Hashtagged keywords & emojis in titles are not allowed.

Reasonable outcome I think....

Is this the usual punishment in the UK for a repeat offender?

You get between 3-6 points on your licence for driving infractions. 12 points equals a ban. I think Stormzy already had six points for speeding and illegal window tints… then he got caught using a phone.

I know it's not perfect over there but my American brain can't fathom a government holding a rich person accountable for the rules of the road lol

[–] Noel_Skum@sh.itjust.works 2 points 5 months ago (1 children)

As it happens a lot of points (for speeding offences) are added automatically when a speed camera pings your car licence plate so the system is hard to dodge - regardless of the depth of your pocket.

Yeah, the UK does have some problems… but I think they are working on them slowly.

The roads in the US would be a safer place if we had a point system like that. Rich people just pay the speeding tax (a flat fee ticket) and continue endangering others

In some Nordic countries I believe fines are tied to your annual income so a fine - in theory - should hurt everyone the same.

[–] glimse@lemmy.world 2 points 5 months ago (1 children)

I've heard that, too, and think most fines should be that way. The rich "get away" with a lot because they can afford the fines.

Many years ago I was on a train with my astronomically wealthy friend. We wanted a smoke but it was banned. Late night train, long journey, no other passengers. When the ticket inspector turned-up my friend tried to pay two fines in cash and then sparked-up a cigarette…

[–] glimse@lemmy.world 2 points 5 months ago

I hate your friend lol
