The first offense will be just a warning. $75 for 2nd offense and $150 for offences thereafter.

It'd be nice if we could adjust fines based on income as is done in Finland. $150 from my pocket wouldn't be overly significant but some households it would be downright harmful.

Speeding is only for the rich.

Here that would be ridiculously abused. People making $75k per year would get thousand-dollar tickets and people making a million + would just make a phone call and get out of it.

If the penalty is only a fine, the law only applies to the poor.

Especially when the fines are automated by cameras. They won't even have to put up with the hassle of getting pulled over. Their financial managers will probably pay the tickets without them even knowing they got them.
