Me neither because if 2 people both commit the same crime they should be punished the same. This just seems like it's targeting people with higher income

Well technically they are being punished the same, it's the same percentage of their income being fined. Personally I think this is a good idea, you go Finland.
The idea is that rich people would normally be able to easily shrug off fixed speeding fees without any gripes. Thus, less incentive to follow the law.
This system seems like a good idea until you realize that as a rich person all you have to do is move your money somewhere in the cayman islands and act like your poor. Yay let's speed!
it isn't only endangering you it also endangers them, but that's not the point. You can't charge someone based off their income.how will they charge some teenager who doesn't have a job? Will they charge them based off of their parents pay? Or how about the person who's on welfare? It's just not that simple.
