For some reason I like the idea. You don't speed to save money but to save time, so paying the fine in time seems ... appropiate?


I like the idea, too. One exception where it might not be very effective is in cases where the speeder doesn't consider their time as valuable vs. paying money, e.g. teenagers.


Maybe, but it might be embaressing unless it is on purpuse. You could still withdraw the license etc.

In practice the cops probably need to be able to handle teens "playing" and on purpose getting wait fines some way. It wouldn't be unmanageble.


It would be a shame if people got from place A to place B too fast.
